This paper considers distributed systems, defined as a collection of components interacting through interfaces. Components, interfaces and distributed systems are modeled as Petri...
Pre-execution attacks cache misses for which conventional address-prediction driven prefetching is ineffective. In pre-execution, copies of cache miss computations are isolated fr...
Many natural images contain reflections and transparency, i.e., they contain mixtures of reflected and transmitted light. When viewed from a moving camera, these appear as the sup...
In a future networked physical world, a myriad of smart sensors and actuators assess and control aspects of their environments and autonomously act in response to it. Examples ran...
A composite multimedia object has specific timing relationships among the different types of component media. Coordinating the real-time presentation of information and maintaini...
