Much has been written of the facilities for ontology building and reasoning offered for ontologies expressed in the Web Ontology Language (OWL). Less has been written about how th...
Abstract. Advanced multi-threaded programs apply concurrency concepts in sophisticated ways. For instance, they use fine-grained locking to increase parallelism and change locking...
In this paper, we present the design, implementation, and evaluation of a system that executes complex event queries over real-time streams of RFID readings encoded as events. The...
Regular expression matching is a key task (and often computational bottleneck) in a variety of software tools and applications. For instance, the standard grep and sed utilities, ...
Systems programs rely on fine-grain control of data representation and use of state to achieve performance, conformance to hardware specification, and temporal predictability. T...
