POSD-a notation for presenting complex systems of processes
When trying to describe the behaviour of large systems, such as the business processes of large enterprises, we often adopt diagramming techniques based on derivatives of data flo...

The Effect of Instruction Set Complexity on Program Size and Memory Performance
One potentialdisadvantage of a machine with a reduced instruction. set is that object programs may be substantially larger than those for a machine with a richer, more complex ins...

Generic Reactive Animation: Realistic Modeling of Complex Natural Systems
Abstract. Natural systems, such as organs and organisms, are largescale complex systems with numerous elements and interactions. Modeling such systems can lead to better understand...

Computing Cartograms with Optimal Complexity
We show how to compute cartograms with worst-case optimal polygonal complexity. Specifically we study rectilinear duals which are side-contact representations of a planar graph G ...
