Hydra is a computer hardware description language that integrates several kinds of software tool (simulation, netlist generation and timing analysis) within a single circuit speci...
Concurrent Action-Oriented Specifications (CAOS) model the behavior of a synchronous hardware circuit as asynchronous guarded at an abstraction level higher than the Register Tran...
This paper describes an efficient optimistic concurrency control scheme for use in distributed database systems in which objects are cached and manipulated at client machines whil...

This paper presents a novel compiler for Esterel, a concurrent synchronous imperative language. It generates fast, small object code by compiling away concurrency, producing a sin...
Synchronous languages allow a high level, concurrent, and deterministic description the behavior of reactive systems. Thus, they can be used advantageously for the programming of ...
