Virtual execution environments have become increasingly useful in system implementation, with dynamic translation techniques being an important component for performance-critical ...
Hard-disk drive power consumption reduction methods focus mainly on increasing the amount of time the disk is in standby mode (disk spun down) by implementing aggressive data read...
A software framework for the parallel execution of sequential programs using C++ classes is presented. The functional language Concurrent ML is used to implement the underlying ha...
