Abstract. Software transactional memory (STM) offers a disciplined concurrent programming model for exploiting the parallelism of modern processor architectures. This paper presents the first deterministic specification automata for strict serializability ...
In this paper we show how interference can be exploited to perform gossip computations over a larger local neighborhood, rather than only pairs of nodes. We use a recently introduced technique called computation coding to perform reliable computation over ...

For the multi-robot coverage problem determin- istic deliberative as well as probabilistic approaches have been proposed. Whereas deterministic approaches usually provide provable completeness and promise good performance under perfect conditions, probabil ...
Determinisation and complementation are foundational notions in computer science. When considering finite automata on finite words nondeterminisation and complementation are one and the same. Given a nondeterministic finite automaton there exists an expone ...
The Object Constraint Language (OCL) offers so-called non-deterministic constructs which are often only poorly understood even by OCL experts. They are widely ignored in the OCL literature, their semantics given in the official language description of OCL ...
A set of phylogenetic trees with overlapping leaf sets is consistent if it can be merged without conflicts into a supertree. In this paper, we study the polynomial-time approximability of two related optimization problems called the maximum rooted triplets ...
Efficient subsumption checking, deciding whether a subscription or publication is subsumed (covered) by a set of previously defined subscriptions, is of paramount importance for publish/subscribe systems. It provides the core system functionality, and addi ...
Aggregate scheduling is one of the most promising solutions to the issue of scalability in networks, like DiffServ networks and high speed switches, where hard QoS guarantees are required. For networks of FIFO aggregate schedulers, the main existing suffic ...
