Timed Communicating Object Z (TCOZ) combines Object-Z's strengths in modeling complex data and algorithms with Timed CSP's strengths in modeling real-time concurrency. TC...
We describe and evaluate the performance of a parallel search engine that is able to cope efficiently with concurrent read/write operations. Read operations come in the usual form ...
Processing XML documents in multi-user database management environments requires a suitable storage model of XML data, support of typical XML document processing (XDP) interfaces, ...
