Conventional implementations of CORBA communication middleware incur significant overhead when used for performance-sensitive applications over high-speed networks. As gigabit ne...
Efficient data storage, a major concern in the modern computer industry, is mostly provided today by the the traditional magnetic disk. Unfortunately the cost of a disk transfer m...
We introduce a novel semantic representation formalism, Almost Flat Functional semantics (AFF), which is designed as an intelligent compromise between linguistically motivated pre...
