The DAG-based task graph model has been found effective in scheduling for performance prediction and optimization of parallel applications. However the scheduling complexity and s...
Tropes, an object-based knowledge representation system, has been added three important intertwined features: constraints, composite objects and tasks. Constraints provide a decla...
: This paper describes a method aiming to support the design of interactive-safety critical systems. The method proposes an original integration of approaches usually considered se...
A practical lipreading system can be considered either as subject dependent (SD) or subject-independent (SI). An SD system is user-specific, i.e., customized for some particular ...
The memory consistency model in parallel programming controls the order in which operations performed by one thread may be observed by another. Language designers have been reluct...
