ABSTRACT. Aspect-orientation promises better modularity than pure object-oriented decomposition. A typical benefit of increased modularity is ease of maintenance, evolution and reu...
Block joinpoints allow programmers to explicitly mark regions of base code as “to be advised”, thus avoiding the need to extract the block into a method just for the sake of c...
Discrete gate sizing is a critical optimization in VLSI circuit design. Given a set of available gate sizes, discrete gate sizing problem asks to assign a size to each gate such th...
Cognitive radio networks are emerging as a promising technology for the efficient use of radio spectrum. In these networks, there are two categories of networks on different chann...
As transistor process technology approaches the nanometer scale, process variation significantly affects the design and optimization of high performance microprocessors. Prior stu...
