In a realistic design flow, circuit and system optimizations must interact with physical aspects of the design. For example, improvements in timing and power may require replacing ...
For various applications there is the need to compare the similarity between two process models. For example, given the as-is and to-be models of a particular business process, we ...
We show that a wide class of bidirectional data-flow analyses and program optimizations based on them admit declarative descriptions in the form of type systems. The salient feat...
