This paper approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. We construct a ring of databases and use it as the foundation of the design of a quer...
Accurate gate-level static timing analysis in the presence of RC loads has become an important problem for modern deep-submicron designs. Non-capacitive loads are usually analyzed...
This paper discusses an approach for top-down composition of software architectures. First, an architecture is derived that addresses functional requirements only. This architectu...
In this paper we extend an earlier worst case bound reliability theory to derive a worst case reliability function R(t), which gives the worst case probability of surviving a furt...
Improving the dependability of computer systems is increasingly important as more and more of our lives depend on the availability of such systems. Wrapping dynamic link libraries...
