The notion of ThisType has been proposed to promote typesafe reuse of binary methods and recently extended to mutually recursive definitions. It is well-known, however, that This...
In this paper, we consider minimizing the system-level energy consumption through dynamic voltage scaling for embedded devices, while a) allowing concurrent access to shared objec...
