We propose an approach that uses preferences on the constraints in order to deal with over-constrained geometric constraint problems. This approach employs constraint hierarchies,...
Automatic cost analysis has interesting applications in the context of verification and certification of mobile code. For instance, the code receiver can use cost information in o...
Modern software control systems must cope with uncertainty, manage dynamic environments, as well as provide greater flexibility. Distributed agent-based control systems are the id...
Modern applications requiring spatial network processing pose many interesting query optimization challenges. In many cases, query processing depends on the corresponding graph si...

It is difficult to identify whether quality requirements are defined adequately or not, but there are few methods to support this kind of requirements analysis. In this paper, we ...
Energy-efficiency has been an important system issue in hardware and software designs to extend operation duration or cut power bills. This research explores systems with probabil...
We present CRF-Gradient, a self-healing gradient algorithm that provably reconfigures in O(diameter) time. Selfhealing gradients are a frequently used building block for distribut...

A key benefit of generic programming is its support for producing modules with clean separation. In particular, generic algorithms are written to work with a wide variety of unmod...
