Abstract. Possibilistic knowledge bases gather propositional formulas associated with degrees belonging to a linearly ordered scale. These degrees reflect certainty or priority, de...
The importance of early performance assessment grows as software systems increase in terms of size, logical distribution and interaction complexity. Lack of time from the side of ...
This paper describes the synthesis and hardware implementation of a signal-type asynchronous data communication mechanism (ACM). Such an ACM can be used in systems where a data-dr...
Developing a distributed application is hard due to the complexity inherent to distributed communication. Moreover, distributed object communication technology is always changing,...
Physical design for object-oriented databases is still in its infancy. Implementation decisions often intrude into the conceptual design (such as inverse links and object decompos...
