This paper describes the challenges presented by singlechip parallel media processors (PMPs). These machines integrate multiple parallel function units, instruction execution, and...
Statecharts is a visual language for specifying the behavior of reactive systems. The language extends nite-state machines with concepts of hierarchy, concurrency, and priority. De...
We present a technique for restructuring functions with low cohesion into functions with high cohesion. Such restructuring is desirable when re-architecting a legacy system into a...
