Programmers and users of compute intensive scientific applications often do not want to (or even cannot) code load balancing and fault tolerance into their programs. The PBEAM syst...
Accurate branch prediction is essential for obtaining high performance in pipelined superscalar processors that execute instructions speculatively. Some of the best current predic...
The goal of this paper is to develop an algebraic theory of process scheduling. We specify a syntax for denoting processes composed of actions with given durations. Subsequently, w...
In a faulty digital circuit, many (single) faulty gates may explain the observed findings. In this paper we are mostly concerned, not in obtaining alternative diagnoses, but rathe...
Enterprise Java Beans (EJB), a specification for a Java component framework recently released by Sun Microsystems, immediately attracted attention of several major software vendor...
