There are already a huge number of problems for silicon designers and it is likely to just get worse. Many of these problems are technical associated with shrinking geometries and...
During software evolution, adaptive, and corrective maintenance are common reasons for changes. Often such changes cluster around key components. It is therefore important to anal...

While group communication system have been proposed for some time, they are still not used much in actual systems. We believe that one reason for this is the lack of standardisati...
Autonomy is regarded as a crucial notion in multi-agent systems and several researchers have tried to identify what are the agent's parts that give it an autonomous character....
Programming heterogeneous parallel computer systems is notoriously difficult, but MIMD models have proven to be portable across multi-core processors, clusters, and massively paral...
