Software designs decay over time. While most studies focus on decay at the system level, this research studies design decay on well understood micro architectures, design patterns...
— Interrupt-based programming is widely used for interfacing a processor with peripherals and allowing software threads to interact. Many hardware/software architectures have bee...

We present the framework of a new grid architecture based on the peer-to-peer and the component paradigms. In our architecture, several peer-to-peer components are loosely coupled...
The constant race for faster and more powerful CPUs is drawing to a close. No longer is it feasible to significantly increase the speed of the CPU without paying a crushing penalt...
