Delay variations (jitter) in computations and communications cause degradation of performance in control applications. There are many sources of jitter, including variations in ex...
When executing soft real-time tasks in a shared processor, it is important to properly allocate the computational resources such that the quality of service requirements of each t...

Tools that analyze and enhance large-scale software systems using symbolic reasoning are computationally expensive, and yet processors are cheap. We believe that enabling tools wi...
In this paper we introduce, analyze and quantitatively compare a number of surface simplification methods for point-sampled geometry. We have implemented incremental and hierarchi...
Research into the cognitive aspects of programming originated in the study of professional programmers (whether experts or students). Even “end-user” programmers in previous s...
