This paper addresses design exploration for protocols that are employed in systems with availability-consistency tradeoffs. Distributed data is modelled as states of objects repl...
Entropy encoding and decoding is a crucial part of any multimedia system that can be highly demanding in terms of computing power. Hardware implementation of typical compression a...
Abstract. The real-time process algebra (RTPA) is a set of new mathematical notations for formally describing system architectures, and static and dynamic behaviors. It is recogniz...
This paper deals with a shared server environment where the server is divided into a number of resource partitions and used to host multiple applications at the same time. In a cas...
We consider a hierarchy of modal event calculi to represent and reason about partially ordered events. These calculi are based on the model of time and change of Kowalski and Sergo...
