This edition has been revised and updated throughout. It includes some new chapters. It features improved treatment of dynamic programming and greedy algorithms as well as a new notion of edge-based flow in the material on flow networks.--[book cover].
This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Construction and Analysis of Safe, Secure, and Interoperable Smart Devices, CASSIS 2005. The 9 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from about 30 workshop talks. The papers are organized in topical sections on research trends in smart devices, Web services, virtual machine technology, security, validation and formal methods, proof-carrying code, and embedded devices.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on High Performance Embedded Architectures and Compilers, HiPEAC 2007, held in Ghent, Belgium, in January 2007. The 19 revised full papers presented together with one invited keynote paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections.
A Theory and Practice of Program Development provides a comprehensive introduction to a software development method based on VDM-SL. Each development step is rigorously justified, and the strategies and transformations used are justified and explained ma thematically. The approach provides the formal semantics of a simple, but powerful, wide-spectrum programming language and gives a formal definition of both algorithmic and data refinement. Unlike other texts, it covers both the theory and practice of program development. Although based on VDM-SL, no knowledge of this language is assumed, thus making it widely accessible. A Theory and Practice of Program Development is intended for 3rd/4th year undergraduate and postgraduate students taking formal methods and software engineering; software developers involved in the production of provably correct computer systems and reusa ble design and the problems of reusable code.
GERAD celebrates this year its 25th anniversary. The Center was created in 1980 by a small group of professors and researchers of HEC Montreal, McGill University and of the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. GERAD's activities achieved sufficient scope to justify its conversion in June 1988 into a Joint Research Centre of HEC Montreal, the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal and McGill University. In 1996, the U- versite du Quebec a Montreal joined these three institutions. GERAD has fifty members (professors), more than twenty research associates and post doctoral students and more than two hundreds master and Ph.D. students. GERAD is a multi-university center and a vital forum for the devel- ment of operations research. Its mission is defined around the following four complementarily objectives: • The original and expert contribution to all research fields in GERAD's area of expertise; • The dissemination of research results in the best scientific outlets as well as in the society in general; • The training of graduate students and post doctoral researchers; • The contribution to the economic community by solving important problems and providing transferable tools.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th Asian Symposium on Programming Languages and Systems, APLAS 2013, held in Melbourne, Australia, in December 2013. The 20 regular papers presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers cover a variety of foundational and practical issues in programming languages and systems.
