The extraction of planar sections from volume images is the most commonly used technique for inspecting and visualizing anatomic structures. We propose to generalize the concept of planar section to the extraction of curved cross-sections (free form surfac ...

Peter Urban, Xavier Defago and Andre Schiper Neko: A Single Environment to Simulate and Prototype Distributed Algorithms Designing, tuning, and analyzing the performance of distributed algorithms and protocols are complex tasks. A major factor that contrib ...
AbstractThe constant demand for a better integration of utility applications and systems provokes the question on the compatibility of standards that were, and still are, developed for these individual utility disciplines. This paper discusses the need for ...
Program verification is a promising approach to improving program quality, because it can search all possible program executions for specific errors. However, the need to formally describe correct behavior or errors is a major barrier to the widespread ado ...
In the first part of this paper we present a new general component-oriented formalism, which has, among others, the following features: Concurrency, atomicity, synchronization between and inside components, and modularity. We give the inference rules which ...

Just like Remote Procedure Call (RPC) turned out to be a very effective OS ab-straction in building client-server applications over LANs, Type-based Publish-Sub-scribe (TPS) can be viewed as a high-level candidate OS abstraction for building Peer-to-Peer ( ...
CO-OPN (Concurrent Object Oriented Petri Net) is a formal specification language for modelling distributed systems; it is based on coordinated algebraic Petri nets. In this paper we describe a method for generating an executable prototype from a CO-OPN spe ...

This paper presents the abstraction of open consensus and argues for its use as an effective component for building reliable agreement protocols in practical asynchronous systems where processes and links can crash and recover. The specification of open co ...
