This paper studies the problem of e ciently scheduling fully strict (i.e., wellstructured) multithreaded computations on parallel computers. A popular and practical method of sche...
Worst-casebounds on delay and backlog are derived for leaky bucket constrained sessions in arbitrary topology networks of Generalized Processor Sharing (GPS) 10] servers. The inhe...
In this paper, we propose the use of fine-grain process modelling as an aid to software development. We suggest the use of two levels of granularity, one at the level of the indiv...
In this paper we show how to extend Coloured Petri Nets (CP-nets), with three new modelling primitives—place capacities, test arcs and inhibitor arcs. The new modelling primitiv...
We discuss current approaches to the development of natural language dialogue systems, and claim that they do not sufficiently consider the unique qualities of man-machine intera...
