The goal of this research is to develop performance profiles of parallel and distributed applications in order to predict their execution time under different network conditions....
A central challenge in computer science and knowledge representation is the integration of conceptual frameworks for continuous and discrete change, as exemplified by the theory ...
Data-layout optimizations rearrange fields within objects, objects within objects, and objects within the heap, with the goal of increasing spatial locality. While the importance ...
Proof-carrying code (PCC) is a general framework that can, in principle, verify safety properties of arbitrary machine-language programs. Existing PCC systems and typed assembly l...
In this paper we explore the problem of creating vulnerability signatures. A vulnerability signature matches all exploits of a given vulnerability, even polymorphic or metamorphic...
