ABSTRACT Motivated by data value locality and quality tolerance present in multimedia applications, we propose a new micro-architecture, Region-level Approximate Computation Buffer...
Software systems should consist of simple, conceptually clean software components interacting along narrow, well-defined paths. All too often, this is not reality: complex compon...
Abstract—Frameworks are a key technology to reduce software development costs and shorten the time-to-market. However, framework complexity presents reuse problems that limit its...
Until recently, in the automotive industry, reuse of software has entirely been a typical activity of suppliers. They try to reduce the increasing software development costs that ...
We propose a method to reuse unmodified device drivers and to improve system dependability using virtual machines. We run the unmodified device driver, with its original operating...
