Take a cellular automaton, consider that each configuration is a basis vector in some vector space, and linearize the global evolution function. If lucky, the result could actually...
Cellular automata are a simple model of parallel computation. Many people wonder about the computing power of such a model. Following an idea of S. Wolfram [16], M. Cook [3] has pr...
In a software product line, the binding time of a feature is the time at which one decides to include or exclude a feature from a product. Typical binding site implementations are...
Load balancing is the process of distributing client requests over a set of servers, and is a key element of obtaining good performance in a distributed application. Java RMI exte...
