We elaborate upon the usage of action language C for representing and reasoning about biological models. First, we provide a simple extension of C allowing for variables and show ...
Twig queries have been extensively studied as a major fragment of XPATH queries to query XML data. In this paper, we study PXMLRANK query, (Q, k), which is to rank top-k probabili...
We study how several collective operations like broadcast, reduction, scan, etc. can be composed efficiently in complex parallel programs. Our specific contributions are: (1) a fo...
