This paper extends basic software-testing theory to software components and adds explicit state to the theory. The resulting theory e enough to abstractly model the construction o...
We study the problem of minimizing energy consumption in realtime embedded systems that execute variable workloads and are equipped with processors having dynamic voltage scaling ...
Abstract. Parallel program design patterns provide users a new way to get parallel programs without much effort. However, it is always a serious limitation for most existing parall...
