The design of secure buffer managers for database systems supporting real-time applications with firm deadlines is studied here. We first identify the design challenges and then p...
The wire sizing problem under inequality Elmore delay constraints is known to be posynomial, hence convex under an exponential variable-transformation. There are formal methods fo...
Abstract. In a trace-based world, the modular speci cation, veri cation, and control of live systems require each module to be receptive that is, each module must be able to meet i...
Rectangular hybrid automatamodel digital control programs of analog plant environments. We study rectangular hybrid automatawhere the plant state evolves continuously in real-numbe...
: This paper describes techniques for maximizing the efficient use of small screen space by combining delayed response with semi-transparency of control objects ("widgets"...
