Abstract. We demonstratehow the use of synchronizationprimitives and threading policies in distributed object middleware can lead to deadlocks. We identify that objectmiddleware on...
This paper presents a precise market model for a well-defined class of distributed configuration design problems. Given a design problem, the model defines a computational economy...
This paper presents a practical, high-quality, hardwareaccelerated volume rendering approach including scattering, environment mapping, and ambient occlusion. We examine the appli...
Abstract—Many design steps during system development like functional partitioning, refactoring of the architecture, or the mapping to the platform - can be understood as an explo...
