Abstract. FinFuns are total functions that are constant except for a finite set of points, i.e. a generalisation of finite maps. We formalise them in Isabelle/HOL and present how...
We propose a model for describing the parallel performance of multigrid software on distributed memory architectures. The goal of the model is to allow reliable predictions to be m...
One of the problems with Java for real-time systems is the unpredictable behavior of garbage collection (GC). GC introduces unexpected load and causes undesirable delays for real-...
Abstract. In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorit...
This paper presents a family of simulators that have been developed for data-intensive applications, and a methodology to select the most efficient one based on a usersupplied req...
