Rewriting is a computational paradigm that specifies the actions, but not the control. We introduce a hierarchical structure repreat a high level of abstraction, a form of control....
Most of the effort that goes into improving the quality of software paradoxically does not lead to quantitative, measurable quality. Software developers and quality-assurance orga...
A vast body of theoretical research has focused either on overly simplistic models of parallel computation, notably the PRAM, or overly specific models that have few representati...

Excessive power dissipation in integrated circuits causes overheating and can lead to soft errors and or permanent damage. The severity of the problem increases in proportion to t...

Shannon's Coding Theorem shows that in order to reliably transmit a message of T bits over a noisy communication channel, only a constant slowdown factor is necessary in the ...
