As processor speeds rapidly approach the Giga-Hertz regime, the disparity between process time and memory access time plays an increasing role in the overall limitation of processo...
High-bandwidth applications with time-dependent resource requirements demand certain resource level assurances in order to operate correctly. Quality of Service resource managemen...

Creating freeform surfaces is a challenging task even with advanced geometric modeling systems. Laser range scanners offer a promising alternative for model acquisition--the 3D sc...
We consider some issues in optimizing persistent programming languages. In particular, we show how to express optimizations of object residency checks in strongly typed persistent...
We study computer virology from an abstract point of view. Viruses and worms are self-replicating programs, whose constructions are essentially based on Kleene's second recurs...
