Achieving peak performance in important numerical kernels such as dense matrix multiply or sparse-matrix vector multiplication usually requires extensive, machine-dependent tuning ...
The agent view provides maybe the right level of abstraction for dealing with complex, distribblem-solving systems. It abstracts from aspects like the hardware or software platfor...
Software testing can only be formalized and quanti ed when a solid basis for test generation can be de ned. Tests are commonly generated from program source code, graphical models ...
Descriptions of reactive systems focus heavily on behavioral aspects, often in terms of scenarios. To cope with the increasing complexity of services provided by these systems, beh...
Access/execute architectures have several advantages over more traditional architectures. Because address generation and memory access are decoupled from operand use, memory laten...
