This paper reports on an approachfor improvingthe understandingof old programs which have become very complex due to numerous extensions. We have adapted partial evaluation techni...
Modern extensible database systems support multimedia data through ADTs. However, because of the problems with multimedia query formulation, this support is not sufficient. Multim...
Group communication primitives have broad utility as building blocks for distributed applications. The challenge is to create and maintain the distributed structures that support ...
