In prior work we have developed an escape analysis to help developers identify sources of object churn (i.e., excessive use of temporaries) in large framework-based applications. ...
Object-oriented frameworks are sophisticated software artifacts that significantly impact productivity when building applications in a given domain. However, frameworks are complex...
In SMP clusters it is not always convenient to switch from pure message-passing code to hybrid software designs that exploit shared memory. This paper tackles the problem of restru...
Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) architectures are gaining popularity for building open, distributed, and evolving software required by systems such as information integration application...
