Preventing abusive resource consumption is indispensable for all kinds of systems that execute untrusted mobile code, such as mobile object systems, extensible web servers, and we...
Modern distributed software applications generally operate in complex and heterogeneous computing environments (like the World Wide Web). Different paradigms (client-server, mobili...
Spatial-lattice computations with finite-range interactions are an important class of easily parallelized computations. This class includes many simple and direct algorithms for ...
Value prediction breaks data dependencies in a program thereby creating instruction level parallelism that can increase program performance. Hardware based value prediction techni...
In this paper we propose a methodology to help analyse tendencies in MAS to complement those of simple inspection, Monte Carlo and syntactic proof. We suggest an architecture that ...
