Dynamic replication algorithms aim at allocating, migrating and deleting copies of an object over various Internet hosts, according to the access patterns exhibited online, so as ...
PLC-Automata are a class of real-time automata suitable to describe the behavior of polling real-time systems. PLC-Automata can be compiled to source code for PLCs, a hardware wide...
Simulated annealing based standard cell placement for VLSI designs has long been acknowledged as a compute-intensive process. All previous work in parallel simulated annealing bas...
Hybrid transition systems in their full generality describe continuous behaviour by a set of equations in each mode an algebraic or di erential equation for each state variable in ...
Abstract. We introduce a novel extension of propositional modal logic that is interpreted over Kripke structures in which a value is associated with every possible world. These val...
