Program compilation can be formally defined as a sequence of equivalence-preserving transformations, or refinements, from highlevel language programs to assembler code. Recent mo...
We describe some of the techniques which have been used to implement METATEM, a programming language based on temporal logic, and address problems such as non-determinism and loopi...
We show that for even quasi-concave objective functions the worst-case distribution, with respect to a family of unimodal distributions, of a stochastic programming problem is a u...
We investigate some approaches to solving nonconvex global optimization problems by convex nonlinear programming methods. We assume that the problem becomes convex when selected va...
Abstract? Fixed-point DSPs are a class of embedded processors with highly irregular architectures. This irregularity makes it difficult to generate high-quality machine code from p...
