Building realistic end user scenarios for ubiquitous computing applications entails large up-front investments. Many context adaptive applications so far fail to live up to their ...
Out-of-memory errors are a serious source of unreliability in most embedded systems [22]. Applications run out of main memory because of the frequent difficulty of estimating the ...
Continuous memory leaks severely hurt program performance and software availability for garbage-collected programs. This paper presents a safe method, called LeakSurvivor, to tole...
Abstract. Bitmap indices are popular multi-dimensional data structures for accessing read-mostly data such as data warehouse (DW) applications, decision support systems (DSS) and o...
Enterprise systems must guarantee high availability and reliability to provide 24/7 services without interruptions and failures. Mechanisms for handling exceptional cases and impl...
