We introduce factored language models (FLMs) and generalized parallel backoff (GPB). An FLM represents words as bundles of features (e.g., morphological classes, stems, data-drive...
We introduce a new kernel language for modeling hardware/software systems, adopting multiple heterogenous models of computation. The language has formal operational semantics, and...
Java's design goals of portability, safety, and ubiquity make it a potentially ideal language for large-scale heterogeneous computing. One of the remaining challenges is to c...
Advances in computer networks that support the invocation of remote services in heterogeneous environments enable new levels of software composition. In order to manage composition...
This paper introduces an object-passing model for parallel and distributed application development. Object passing provides the object-oriented application developer with powerful...
