— Management of power and other resources that effect field life is an important consideration in sensor networks. This paper presents and compares alternative agent paradigms ap...
Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) have become nearly ubiquitous as a means of interacting with software systems. GUIs are typically highly complex pieces of software, and testing t...
In this paper, we present surplus fair scheduling (SFS), a proportional-share CPU scheduler designed for symmetric multiprocessors. We first show that the infeasibility of certain...
In this paper we present a system that automatically generates a 3D virtual world from a virtual institution (VI) specification, namely of activities that will take place in the v...
We propose a natural framework, called NF, which supports development of formal proofs on a computer. NF is based on a theory of Judgments and Derivations. NF is designed by observ...
