Many instructional strategies that appear to improve learners' performance during training may not realize adequate posttest performance or transfer to a job. The converse has been found to be true as well: Instructional strategies that appear to slow the ...
Concurrent implementations of abstract types usually rely on lock-free primitives or locks and are highly tuned to support a finite set of efficient operations. However, it is very hard to extend such types for specific needs by adding new operations. The ...
Cloud computing is a new computing paradigm, combining diverse client devices -- PCs, smartphones, sensors, single-function, and embedded -- with computation and data storage in the cloud. As with every advance in computing, programming is a fundamental ch ...
As developers debug, they often have to seek the origins of wrong values they see in their debugger. This search must be performed backwards in time since the code causing the wrong value is executed before the wrong value appears. Therefore, locating the ...
Join patterns are an attractive declarative way to synchronize both threads and asynchronous distributed computations. We explore joins in the context of extensible pattern matching that recently appeared in languages such as F# and Scala. Our implementati ...

Nous présentons un modèle itératif inspiré du modèle CIFS (Controlled Iterative Function System) de PRUSINKIEWICZ [PH94] - encore appelé RIFS (Recurrent Iterative Function System) par BARNSLEY ou MRIFS (Mutually Recursive Iterative Function System) par CUL ...
In chip multiprocessors (CMPs), limiting the number of off-chip cache misses is crucial for good performance. Many multithreaded programs provide opportunities for constructive cache sharing, in which concurrently scheduled threads share a largely overlapp ...
Building correct and efficient concurrent algorithms is known to be a difficult problem of fundamental importance. To achieve ef- ficiency, designers try to remove unnecessary and costly synchro- nization. However, not only is this manual trial-and-error proc ...
