It is generally agreed that memory requirements should be taken into account in the scheduling of parallel jobs. However, so far the work on combined processor and memory schedulin...
Constraint-based analysis is a technique for inferring implementation types. Traditionally it has been described using mathematical formalisms. We explain it in a different and mor...
Interframe compression techniques, such as those used in MPEG video, give rise to a coded bit stream where picture sizes di er by a factor of 10 or more. As a result, bu ering is ...
Current research in natural language processing is characterized by the development of theories of grammar which strongly depend on the lexicon to drive parsing systems (e.g. Lexi...
A wad-free implementation of a data object in shared memory is one that guarantees that any process can complete any operation in a finite number of steps, regardless of the execu...
