A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
We introduce the coupled placement problem for modern data centers spanning placement of application computation and data among available server and storage resources. While the t...
A domain-specific visual language, Function Block Language (FBL), is used in Metso Automation for writing automation control programs. The same engineering environment is used for...
Interfaces as defined in the JAVA programming language can enhance both decoupling and comprehensibility of large code bases. Several researchers have pointed out this key role of...
Current compilers lack precise timing models guiding their built-in optimizations. Hence, compilers apply ad-hoc heuristics during optimization to improve code quality. One of the...
