In this paper we present two type inference systems for detecting useless-code in higher-order typed functional programs. Type inference can be performed in an efficient and compl...
Abstract—Recent results have shown that the feasibility problem of scheduling periodic tasks with self-suspensions is NPhard in the strong sense. We observe that a variation of t...
Abstract. We present a new “lifting” approach for the solution of nonlinear optimization problems (NLPs) that have objective and constraint functions with intermediate variable...
Leader election and arbitrary pattern formation are fundammental tasks for a set of autonomous mobile robots. The former consists in distinguishing a unique robot, called the lead...
A 1968 study of the software process led, inter alia, to the observation that the software process constitutes a feedback system. Attempts at its management and improvement must t...
