We apply the symbolic analysis principle to pushdown systems. We represent (possibly in nite) sets of con gurations of such systems by means of nite-state automata. In order to re...

To expand the Scalable Coherent Interface's (SCI) capabilities so it can be used to efficiently handle sharing in systems of hundreds or even thousands of processors, the SCI...
