with existing analysis tools. Modular reasoning principles such as abstraction, compositional refinement, and assume-guarantee reasoning are well understood for architectural hiera...
The relentless push for high performance in custom digital circuits has led to renewed emphasis on circuit optimization or tuning. The parameters of the optimization are typically...
After an outline of the history of evolutionary algorithms, a new ( ) variant of the evolution strategies is introduced formally. Though not comprising all degrees of freedom, it i...
Abstract. We reexamine the limits of parallelism available in programs, using runtime reconstruction of program data-flow graphs. While limits of parallelism have been examined in...
Concurrent Time-stamp Systems (ctss) allow processes to temporally order concurrent events in an asynchronous shared memorysystem, a powerful tool for concurrency control, serving...
