Abstract. Erasure of information incurs an increase in entropy and dissipates heat. Therefore, information-preserving computation is essential for constructing computers that use e...
The development of software systems is a complex task that requires support techniques to guide the process and solve inconsistencies in its . In the agent paradigm, the use of soc...
We describe a software development approach for vision that enhances robustness by making novel use of context. Conventional approaches to most image understanding problems suffe...
We have proposed an automated debugging technique that explains a failure by computing its causal path leading from the root cause to the failure. Given a failing execution, the te...
This paper describes an approach to carry out performance analysis on systems which combine two major characteristics: real-time behaviour and parallel computational structure. It ...
