Resource management is a precondition to build reliable, extensible middleware and to host potentially untrusted user components. Resource accounting allows to charge users for the...
In this paper we present a test-driven approach to porting code from one object-oriented language to another. We derive an order for the porting of the code, along with a testing ...
We investigate the optimum transmission strategy that minimizes the overall distortion for delaysensitive but distortion-tolerant data. We consider a set of source symbols residin...
In this work we evaluate the implementation of a video encoder based on the 3D Wavelet Transform optimized for HyperThreading technology and SMPs. We design several implementation...
Subthreshold-seeking behavior occurs when the majority of the points that an algorithm samples have an evaluation less than some target threshold. We characterize sets of functions...
