This paper outlines the history of the C++ programming language from the early days of its ISO standardization (1991), through the 1998 ISO standard, to the later stages of the C+...
High assurance in embedded system software is difficult to attain. Verification relies on testing. The unreliable and costly testing process is made much worse because the softwar...
Abstract. In aspect-oriented programming, pointcuts are usually compiled by identifying a set of shadows — that is, places in the code whose execution is potentially relevant for...
Hardware compilation techniques which use highlevel programming languages to describe and synthesize hardware are gaining popularity. They are especially useful for reconfigurable...
Many different system description and specification languages are used in modern design flows to emphasize different aspects like modular architecture, multibehavior, abstract act...
