We propose a new way to raise the level of discourse in the programming process: permit ambiguity, but manage it by linking it to unambiguous examples. This allows programming env...
Web sites and web browsers have recently evolved into platforms on top of which entire applications are delivered dynamically, mostly as JavaScript source code. This delivery form...
Accurately predicting program behaviors (e.g., locality, dependency, method calling frequency) is fundamental for program optimizations and runtime adaptations. Despite decades of...

General purpose object-oriented programs typically aren’t embarrassingly parallel. For these applications, finding enough concurrency remains a challenge in program design. To ...
Heterogeneous multi-core processors, such as the IBM Cell processor, can deliver high performance. However, these processors are notoriously difficult to program: different cores...
