Data flow process networks are a good model of computation for streaming multimedia applications incorporating audio, video and/or graphics streams. Process networks are concurre...
Scheme includes a simple yet powerful macro mechanism. Using macros, programmers can easily extend the language with new kinds of expressions and definitions, thus abstracting ove...
This paper considers an integration of asynchronous communication, virtual binding, and multiple inheritance. Object orientation is the leading paradigm for concurrent and distribu...
Answering queries over an incomplete database w.r.t. a set of constraints is an important computational task with applications in fields as diverse as information integration and ...
Querying live media streams is a challenging problem that is becoming an essential requirement in a growing number of applications. Research in multimedia information systems has ...
