We present an analysis of the benefits and drawbacks of function and object based models in system specification. Functional models should be used for functional design space expl...
other projects in the database. Software development data is highly variable, which often result,s in underlying trends being hidden. In order to address this problem, a method of ...
Traditional parallel compilers do not effectively parallelize irregular applications because they contain little looplevel parallelism due to ambiguous memory references. We explo...
Traditional list schedulers order instructions based on an optimistic estimate of the load latency imposed by the hardware and therefore cannot respond to variations in memory lat...
One difficulty in software maintenance is that the relationship between observed program behavior and source code is not always clear. In this paper we are concerned specifically ...
