Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are widely used for describing interaction scenarios between the components of a distributed system. Consequently, worst-case response time estimati...
agent-oriented system. We show the complexity to be linear time for one of these logics and polynomial time for another, thus providing encouraging results with respect to the prac...
networking with a layer 2 abstraction provides a powerful model for virtualized wide-area distributed computing resources, including for high performance computing (HPC) on collec...

This paper introduces the notion of a software decelerator, to be used in logic-centric system architectures. Functions are offloaded from logic to a processor, accepting a speed ...
