A universal spatial automaton, called WAVE, for highly parallel processing in arbitrary distributed systems is described. The automaton is based on a virus principle where recursi...
A primary problem in the performance measurement of high-level parallel programming languages is to map lowlevel events to high-level programming constructs. We discuss several as...
The enforcement of semantic integrity constraints in data and knowledge bases constitutea a major performance bottleneck. Integrity constraint simplification methods aim at reduci...
This paper presents Jade, a high-level parallel programming language for managing coarse-grain concurrency. Jade simplifies programming by providing the programmer with the abstra...
We built a system for the automatic creation of a textbased topic hierarchy, meant to be used in a geographically defined community. This poses two main problems. First, the appea...
