The development of programming skills is a motivating issue in computer science. Programming languages have been increasingly used to map end-users needs and mental models. The nu...
Stigmergy is usually associated with semantically simple problems such as routing. It can be applied to more complex problems by encoding them in the environment through which sti...

Loop nest optimization is a combinatorial problem. Due to the growing complexity of modern architectures, it involves two increasingly difficult tasks: (1) analyzing the profita...
Abstract. This paper deals with the problem of solving efficiently structured CSPs. It is well known that (hyper)tree-decompositions offer the best approaches from a theoretical v...
We address in this paper the problem of scheduling for multiprocessor real-time systems with hard and soft tasks. Utility functions are associated to soft tasks to capture their r...
