Fault tolerance is now a primary design constraint for all major microprocessors. One step in determining a processor’s compliance to its failure rate target is measuring the Ar...
Type checking and type inference are important concepts and methods of programming languages and software engineering. Type checking is a way to ensure some level of consistency, d...
This paper shows the suitability of a "self-maintaining" approach to Tertiary Disk, a large-scale disk array system built from commodity components. Instead of incurring...
tail defines the level of abstraction used to implement the model's components. A highly detailed model will faithfully simulate all aspects of machine operation, whether or n...
