A lazy log-keeping mechanism for comprehensive global garbage detection on Amadeus.
(Springer-Verlag, 1995)Global Garbage Detection (GGD) in object-oriented distributed systems requires that each application process maintains some information in support of GGD. Maintaining this information is known as log-keeping. In this paper ... -
On comprehensive global garbage Detection
(INRIA/IMAG, 1995)The experience gained with centralised garbage collection (GC) techniques has left a legacy of assumptions, expectations and tradeoffs, which may lead one to overlook some Global Garbage Detection (GGD) approaches. We argue ... -
Open to suggestions: On adaptable, Distributed Application Support Architectures
(INRIA/IMAG, 1995)In this paper we analyze the requirements that will be placed on future operating system architectures and conclude that most application areas will need different support from the operating system. What is needed for these ... -
Towards group communication for mobile participants.
(2001)Group communication will undoubtedly be a useful paradigm for many applications of wireless networking in which reliability and timeliness are requirements. Moreover, location awareness is clearly central to mobile ... -
STEAM: Event-based middleware for wireless ad hoc networks.
(IEEE, 2002)With the widespread deployment and use of wireless data communications in the mobile computing domain the need for middleware that interconnects the components that comprise a mobile application in distributed and ... -
An event based object model for distributed programming
(Springer-Verlag, 1995)This paper describes the rationale and design of a new distributed systems programming model based on events, constraints, and objects 1 . The paper describes the inter-object communication or invocation mechanism, and the ... -
Eiffel**: An implementation of Effel
(Prentice Hall, 1993)Eiffel is an implementation of Eiffel which provides support for distribution, persistence, concurrency and transactions. All objects in an Eiffel system are global (i.e. accessible from nodes other than that at which they ... -
Multi-policy optimization in decentralized autonomic systems (extended abstract).
(2009)This paper addresses the challenge of multi-policy optimization in decentralized autonomic systems. We evaluate several multi-policy reinforcement learning-based optimization techniques in an urban traffic control ... -
Quartz: a QoS architecture for open systems
(IEEE, 2000)This paper describes an architecture that provides support for quality of service (QoS) specification and enforcement in heterogeneous distributed computing systems. The Quartz QoS architecture has been designed to ... -
Comprehensive distributed garbage collection by tracking causal dependencies of relevant mutator events.
(IEEE, 1997)Comprehensive distributed garbage collection an objectoriented distributed systems has mostly been addressed via distributed versions of graph-tracing algorithms, a legacy of centralised garbage collection techniques. Two ... -
Supporting object oriented languages on the Comandos platform
(Commission of the European, 1991)The Comandos project 3 is designing and implementing a platform to support distributed persistent applications. In particular the platform supports the object oriented style of programming. An essential requirement of the ... -
Bridging boundaries: CORBA in perspective.
(1997)pplications that cross the boundaries of different computing machines, operating systems, and programming languages are increasingly the norm. As a result, the need for what might be called ?bridging technologies? ... -
Implementing atomic objects with the RelaX transaction facility.
(1992)RelaX offers an extensible transaction facility which isolates distributed (thus complex) transaction processing. A distributed system providing basic support for local recovery may easily be enhanced with flexible transaction ... -
Towards generic support for distributed information systems
(IEEE, 1991)We are concerned with providing support for a range of object oriented programming langauges to be used in multi-user, multi-machine, heterogeneous environments requiring associative access, as well as concurrency and ... -
A Logic Based Implementation of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar
(Elsevier, 1991)Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), a unification-based formal language for describing linguistic phenomena, has a declarative semantics which makes it amenable to specification as a logic program. The HPSG ... -
Psychological Evidence for Assumptions of Path-Based Inheritance Reasoning
(1994)The psychological validity of inheritance reasoners is clarified. Elio and Pelletier (1993) presented the first pilot experiment exploring some of these issues. We investigate other foundational assumptions of inheritance ... -
Inducing a cline from corpora of political manifestos
(ACM, 2003)Techniques from corpus linguistics are applied to the analysis of a number of European right-wing parties in an effort to extend methods for ranking parties on a left-right spectrum within and across countries and ...
