Automated technology for verification and analysis ; 5th International Symposium, ATVA 2007 Tokyo, Japan, October 22-25, 2007 Proceedings
This book presented theoretical methods to achieve correct software or hardware systems, including both functional and non functional aspects
Automated technology for verification and analysis ; 4th International Symposium, ATVA 2006, Beijing, China, October 23-26, 2006, Proceedings
The Automated Technology for Veri?cation and Analysis (ATVA) international symposium series was initiated in 2003, The main topics of the symposium include th- ries useful for providing designers with automated support for obtaining correct software or hardware systems, as well as the implementation of such theories in tools or their application. In the end, 35 papers were selected for inclusion in the program. ATVA 2006 had three keynote speeches given respectively by Thomas Ball, Jin Yang, and Mihalis Yannakakis. The main symposium was preceded by a tutorial day, consisting of three two-hourlectures given by the keynotespeakers.
Architecting Systems with Trustworthy Components ; International Seminar, Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, December 12-17, 2004. Revised Selected Papers
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the International Dagstuhl-Seminar on Architecting Systems with Trustworthy Components, held in Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in December 2004. The 10 revised full papers presented together with 5 invited papers contributed by outstanding researchers were carefully selected and included in the book reflecting ongoing impovement from the seminar. Core problems addressed by the seminar are measurement and normalization of non-functional properties, modular reasoning over non-functional properties, capture of component requirements in interfaces and protocols, interference and synergy of top-down and bottom-up aspects, duality of componentization and architecture, system properties, and opportunities for correctness by construction/static checking.
Analyzing computer system performance with Perl::PDQ
Analyzing computer system performance is often regarded by most system administrators, IT professionals and software engineers as a black art that is too time consuming to learn and apply. Finally, this book by acclaimed performance analyst Dr. Neil Gunther makes this subject understandable and applicable through programmatic examples. The means to this end is the open-source performance analyzer Pretty Damn Quick (PDQ) written in Perl As the epigraph in this book points out, Common sense is the pitfall of performance analysis. The performance analysis framework that replaces common sense is revealed in the first few chapters of Part I. The important queueing concepts embedded in PDQ are explained in a very simple style that does not require any knowledge of formal probability theory. Part II begins with a full specification of how to set up and use PDQ replete with examples written in Perl. Subsequent chapters present applications of PDQ to the performance analysis of multicomputer architectures, benchmark results, client/server scalability, and Web-based applications.
A Practical Programming Model for the Multi-Core Era ; 3rd International Workshop on OpenMP, IWOMP 2007, Beijing, China, June 3-7, 2007 Proceedings
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Third International Workshop on OpenMP, IWOMP 2007, held in Beijing, China, in June 2007.The 14 revised full papers and 8 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 28 submissions. The papers address all topics related to OpenMP, such as OpenMP performance analysis and modeling, OpenMP performance and correctness tools and proposed OpenMP extensions, as well as applications in various domains, e.g., scientific computation, video games, computer graphics, multimedia, information retrieval, optimization, text processing, data mining, finance, signal and image processing, and numerical solvers.
