We present a simple approach for implementing flexible locking strategies in a system of components, which may themselves be composite objects. The approach is flexible in that a ...
In Augmented Reality (AR), see-through Head Mounted Displays (HMDs) superimpose virtual 3D objects over the real world. They have the potential to enhance a user's perception ...
On a distributed memory machine, hand-coded message passing leads to the most efficient execution, but it is difficult to use. Parallelizing compilers can approach the performance...
In the near future, Ambient Intelligence (AmI) will become part of everyday life. Combining feature-rich multimedia with AmI (dubbed Ambient Multimedia for short) has the potentia...
With the advent of system-on-a-chip design, many application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) now require multiple design clocks that operate asynchronously to each other. This...
