: Retrenchment is introduced as a liberalisation of refinement intended to address some of the shortcomings of refinement as sole means of progressing from simple abstract models t...
—Reducing communication latency, which is a performance bottleneck in optically interconnected multiprocessor systems, is of prominent importance. A conventional approach for est...
In communication networks, a large number of alarms exist to signal any abnormal behavior of the network. As network faults typically result in a number of alarms, correlating the...
We describe Elf, a metalanguage for proof manipulation environments that are independent of any particular logical system. Elf is intended for meta-programs such as theorem prover...
Genetic algorithms—a class of stochastic population-based optimization techniques—have been widely realized as the effective tools to solve complicated optimization problems ...
