The efficacy of expert systems often depends on the accuracy and completeness of the problem specification negotiated with the user. Therefore, efficient user interfaces are needed...
Most modern microprocessor-based systems provide support for superpages both at the hardware and software level. Judicious use of superpages can significantly cut down the number...
This paper presents a method for tight prediction of worst-case performance of data caches in highperformance real-time systems. Our approach is to distinguish between data struct...
Most databases contain “name constants” like course numbers, personal names, and place names that correspond to entities in the real world. Previous work in integration of het...
Uncertainty management for geometric data is currently an important problem for (extensible) databases in general and for spatial databases, image databases, and GIS in particular...
