Abstract. The paper presents an algorithm for scheduling parallel programs for execution in a parallel architecture based on dynamic SMP processor clusters with data transfers on t...
Abstract. The Abstract State Machines (ASM) methodology is a methodology for formally specifying computing systems. We use the ASM methodology to give the dynamic semantics of the ...
This paper presents Whizz, a system for building animated interactive applications. We describe its musical metaphor, and its underlying model based on streams and events. We anal...
