Over the past few years, a relatively new computing phenomenon has gained momentum: the spread of "spyware." Though most people are aware of spyware, the research commun...
Nested data-parallelism (NDP) is a declarative style for programming irregular parallel applications. NDP languages provide language features favoring the NDP style, efficient com...

We consider software verification of imperative programs by theorem proving in higher-order separation logic. Of particular interest are the difficulties of encoding and reasoning ...
Software-based thread-level parallelization has been widely studied for exploiting data parallelism in purely computational loops to improve program performance on multiprocessors...
In large-scale clusters and computational grids, component failures become norms instead of exceptions. Failure occurrence as well as its impact on system performance and operatio...
