Exploiting Recurring Usage Patterns to Enhance Filesystem and Memory Subsystem Performance
In many cases, normal uses of a system form patterns that will repeat. The most common patterns can be collected into a prediction model which will essentially predict that usage p...

Effective Program Verification for Relaxed Memory Models
Program verification for relaxed memory models is hard. The high degree of nondeterminism in such models challenges standard verification techniques. This paper proposes a new veri...

Requirements Elicitation and Elicitation Technique Selection: A Model for Two Knowledge-Intensive Software Development Processes
By its very nature, software development consists of many knowledge-intensive processes. One of the most difficult to model, however, is requirements elicitation. This paper prese...
