Monadic query languages over trees currently receive considerable interest in the database community, as the problem of selecting nodes from a tree is the most basic and widespread database query problem in the context of XML. Partly a survey of recent wor ...
A program's cache performance can be improved by changing the organization and layout of its data---even complex, pointer-based data structures. Previous techniques improved the cache performance of these structures by arranging distinct instances to incre ...
In this thesis we formally define the syntactic and semantic aspects of the object-oriented formalism, called CO-OPN/2 (Concurrent Object-Oriented Petri Nets), which is devised for the specification and the modeling of large concurrent systems. Moreover, w ...
Data structures implemented using software transactional memory (STM) have a reputation for being much slower than data structures implemented directly from low-level primitives such as atomic compare-and-swap (CAS). In this paper we present a specialized ...
Modern embedded devices (e.g., PDAs, mobile phones) are now incorporating Java as a very popular implementation language in their designs. These new embedded systems include multiple applications that are dynamically launched by the user, which can produce ...
We present a new decidable logic called TREX for expressing constraints about imperative tree data structures. In particular, TREX supports a transitive closure operator that can express reachability constraints, which often appear in data structure invari ...
Most applications manipulate structured data. Modern languages and platforms provide collection frameworks with basic data structures like lists, hashtables and trees. These data structures come with a range of predefined operations which include sorting, ...
Chord progressions are the building blocks from which tonal music is constructed. The choice of a particular representation for chords has a strong impact on statistical modeling of the dependence between chord symbols and the actual sequences of notes in ...
Synthesis of program fragments from specifications can make programs easier to write and easier to reason about. To integrate synthesis into programming languages, synthesis algorithms should behave in a predictable way---they should succeed for a well-def ...
To narrow the widening gap between processor and memory performance, the authors propose improving the cache locality of pointer-manipulating programs and bolstering performance by careful placement of structure elements. It is concluded that considering p ...
