The use of scenarios has become a popular technique for requirements elicitation and specification building. Since scenarios capture only partial descriptions of system behavior, ...
Query optimizers normally compile queries into one optimal plan by assuming complete knowledge of all cost parameters such asselectivity and resourceavailability. The execution of...
Improvements in main memory speeds have not kept pace with increasing processor clock frequency and improved exploitation of instruction-level parallelism. Consequently, the gap b...
A subtyping 0 is entailed by a set of subtyping constraints C, written C j= 0, if every valuation (mapping of type variables to ground types) that satisfies C also satisfies 0. ...
Cost and power consumption are two of the most important design factors for many embedded systems, particularly consumer devices. Products such as Personal Digital Assistants, pag...
