We present a strategy to derive an efficient reference count garbage collector for any applicative program by only modifying it on the source code level. The key to the approach is...
Sparse matrix-vector multiplication forms the heart of iterative linear solvers used widely in scientific computations (e.g., finite element methods). In such solvers, the matrix-v...

During 1990 and 1991 we carried out a survey of Z users in the UK; in this paper we present the results. Z is being used by a wide variety of companies for many different applicat...
Systems designed for efficient retrieval of conventional data can be very inefficient at retrieving documents. Documents have more complex structure than conventional data, and th...
