We present the architecture and a performance assessment of an extensible query optimizer written in Venus. Venus is a general-purpose active-database rule language embedded in C+...
Reliability is a major requirement for most safety-related systems. To meet this requirement, fault-tolerant techniques such as hardware replication and software re-execution are ...

Modern processor architectures call for software that is highly tuned to an unpredictable operating environment. Processlevel virtualization systems allow existing software to ada...
Software components are modular and can enable post-deployment update, but their high overhead in runtime and memory is prohibitive for many embedded systems. This paper proposes ...
Code density is an important issue in memory constrained systems. Some RISC processor, e.g. the THUMB extension in the ARM processor, supports aggressive code size reduction even ...
