Multiple issue of instructions occurs in superscalar and VLIW machines. This paper investigates a third type of machine design, which combines the advantages of code compatibility...
A partial evaluator is an automatic program transformation tool. Given as input a general program and part of its input, it can produce a specialized version. If the partial evalu...
In this paper we give a practical and e cient output-sensitive algorithm for constructing the display of a polyhedral terrain. It runs in Od + nlog2 n time and uses On n space, wh...
Emulators that translate algorithms from the shared-memory model to two different message-passing models are presented. Both are achieved by implementing a wait-free, atomic, singl...
Many strategies have been proposed to address the problems associated with managing increasingly complex computing systems. IBM's Autonomic Computing (AC) paradigm is one suc...
