If a fixed exponentially decreasing probability distribution function is used to model every object’s lifetime, then the age of an object gives no information about its future ...
This paper introduces a new model, based on so-called object-composition filters, that uniformly integrates database-like features into an object-oriented language. The focus is o...
Parallel performance tuning naturally involves a diagnosis process to locate and explain sources of program inefficiency. Proposed is an approach that exploits parallel computation...
This paper addresses the problem of off-line selection of test cases for testing the conformance of a black-box implementation with respect to a specification, in the context of re...
The paper presents the implementation of a railway control system, as a means of assessing the potential of coordination languages to be used for modelling software architectures f...
