This paper introduces a new set of compact interactive simulations developed for the constructive learning of computer networks concepts. These simulations, which compose a virtual laboratory implemented as portable Java applets, have been created by combining EJS (Easy Java Simulations)…

Region-based memory management offers several important advantages over garbage-collected heap, including real-time performance, better data locality and efficient use of limited memory. The concept of regions was first introduced for a call-by-value functional language by Tofte and Talpin, and has…

Currently, the number of mobile applications that require (wireless) connectivity is constantly increasing. The need for sharing information among mobile devices exists in many applications, and almost every data exchange between these devices involve the same requirements: a means for…

DLP is a basic java-based IDE specifically conceived for DeLP, that allows to compile DeLP programs and queries into JAM opcodes, execute those opcodes, and even witness the actual step by step construction of the dialectical tree that is built…

I propose a technique that identifies program properties that may indicate errors. The technique generates machine learning models of run-time program properties known to expose faults, and applies these models to program properties of user-written code to classify and rank…

During a system’s life cycle, new requirements or changes in the existing ones imply modifying the system. Aspect-oriented software development is a new approach to the modularization of systems, yet it does not provide mechanisms to aid the evolution of…
