The result of a scene manipulation is usually displayed by rerendering the entire image even if the change has affected only a small portion of it. This paper presents a system th...
1 A hybrid (symbolic/connectionist) cognitive architecture, DUAL, is proposed. It is a multi-agent system which consist of a large number of non-cognitive, relatively simple agents...
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...
The need to integrate several versions of a program into a common one arises frequently, but it is a tedious and time consuming task to merge programs by hand. The program-integrat...
