The importance of early performance assessment grows as software systems increase in terms of size, logical distribution and interaction complexity. Lack of time from the side of ...
Innovations from multiple directions have been proposed to improve software reliability. Unfortunately, many of the innovations are not fully exploited by programmers. To bridge t...
We propose a system synthesis method which bridges the gap between a highly abstract functional model and an efficient hardware or software implementation. The functional model is...
