Composition of a system is driven by the (a) identification and specification of basic components, and (b) specification of the interactions across the components, i.e., the commu...
The issue logic of dynamically scheduled superscalar processors is one of their most complex and power-consuming parts. In this paper we present alternative issue-logic designs th...
In restructuring legacy code it may be useful to introduce a design pattern in order to add clarity to the system and thus facilitate further program evolution. We show that aspec...
Drawing on a fieldwork study, this paper considers different design options for the development of a system for facilitating distributed organisation and distributed working withi...
We consider the problem of designing a revenue-maximizing auction for a single item, when the values of the bidders are drawn from a correlated distribution. We observe that there...
