A programming paradigm can be defined as a model or an approach employed in solving a problem. The results of the research described in this document demonstrate that it is possible to unite several different programming paradigms into a single linguistic framework. The imperative, procedural, applicative, lambda-free, relational, logic and...
The bulk of the theory on error control codes has been developed under the
fault assumption of random (symmetric) errors, where 1 → 0 and 0 → 1 errors are
equally likely. In the past few years, several applications have emerged in which the
observed errors are highly asymmetric. This...
We will describe two known strategies for static processor
allocation in an n-cube multiprocessor, namely the buddy system
strategy and the gray code strategy, and then propose a new strategy
that outperforms the first by (n-k+1) and the second by (n-k+1)/2 in
cube recognition. Furthermore, our strategy is suitable for...
Formal methods using text to specify abstract data types (ADTs) are powerful, but they require great effort and a high level of expertise. Visual programming languages present an alternative way of programming but are limited to building small programs. This research presents an approach for specifying ADTs using a combination...
Balanced codes, in which each codeword contains equally many 1's and 0's, are useful in such applications as in optical transmission and optical recording. When balanced codes are used, the same number of 1's and 0's pass through the channel after the transmission of every word, so the channel is...
