When comparing OpenMP to other parallel programming models, it is easier to choose between OpenMP and MPI than between OpenMP and POSIX Threads (Pthreads). With languages like C a...
Cr, As the complexity of high-performance microprocessor increases, functional verification becomes more and more difficult and RTL simulation emerges as the bottleneck of the des...
Simple games are a powerful tool to analyze decision-making and coalition formation in social and political life. In this paper, we present relation-algebraic models of simple game...

LOFAR is the first of a new generation of radio telescopes. Rather than using expensive dishes, it forms a distributed sensor network that combines the signals from many thousands...
Current business conditions have given rise to distributed teams that are mostly collocated except for one remote member. These “hub-and-satellite” teams face the challenge of...
