When people interact to communicate, a very important role is played by the face. In fact, thanks to it we can get information about our interlocutors: who they are, what they feel, what their intentions are, etc. Studies demonstrated that facial expressio ...
API evolution is the process of migrating an inter-library interface from one version to another. Such a migration requires checking that all libraries which interact through the interface be updated. Libraries can be updated one by one if there is a trans ...
This paper studies the use of bytecode instruction counting (BIC) to estimate the CPU load due to the execution of Java programs in different environments. BIC is the basis of the J-RAF2 framework to monitor and control the resource consumption of Java cod ...
n(n + 1)/2 independent diffraction measurements are needed to obtain complete partial structure information for a disordered n-component condensed system. A previous assertion that only n of these are independent is shown to be inapplicable, for different ...
The perfectly-synchronized round-based model provides the powerful abstraction of crash-stop failures with atomic and synchronous message delivery. This abstraction makes distributed programming very easy.We describe a technique to automatically transform ...
Set agreement, where processors decisions constitute a set of outputs, is notoriously harder to analyze than consensus where the decisions are restricted to a single output. This is because the topological questions that underly set agreement are not about ...
Despite advances in implementation technologies of distributed systems during the last few years, little progress has been made on specification techniques for describing distributed systems in software development practice. The contribution of this paper ...
We have designed a series of computer sessions build around ImageJ (a public-domain software for image analysis), as a practical complement to a two-semester course in image processing. The students are challenged with simple practical imaging problems as ...
Experiments with parallel compilation of programming languages are reported. In order to take advantage of the potential parallelism, the language translation process is expressed as an attribute grammar evaluation problem. Three primary benefits to using ...
