We propose the πD -calculus, a process calculus that can flexibly model fine-grained control of resource access in distributed computation, with a type system that statically pr...
This paper presents a novel broadband multimedia service called TV-Anytime. The basic idea of this service is to store broadcast media assets onto media server systems and allow c...
We describe the design of VIP, a graphical front-end to the model checker SPIN. VIP supports a visual formalism, called v-Promela that connects the model checker to modern hierarc...
Scheduling query execution plans is a particularly complex problem in hierarchical parallel systems, where each site consists of a collection of local time-shared (e.g., CPU(s) or...
This paper describes an incremental approach to parsing transcribed spontaneous speech containing disfluencies with a Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model (HHMM). This model makes use...
