In this article we investigate a novel execution paradigm—ML-like pattern-matching— for XML query processing. We show that such a paradigm is well adapted for a common and freq...
A program is reentrant if distinct executions of that program on distinct inputs cannot affect each other. Reentrant programs have the desirable property that they can be deployed...
The goal of this research is to develop performance profiles of parallel and distributed applications in order to predict their execution time under different network conditions....
We exhibit a technique for automatically verifying the safety of simple C programs working on tree-shaped data structures. We do not consider the complete behavior of programs, but...
We explore a homeostatic approach to program execution in computer systems: the “concentration” of computation services is regulated according to their fitness. The goal is to...
