Reservation table scheduling: branch-and-bound based optimization vs. integer linear programming techniques

Hadda Cherroun, Alain Darte, Paul Feautrier (2007)

RAIRO - Operations Research

The recourse to operation research solutions has strongly increased the performances of scheduling task in the High-Level Synthesis (called hardware compilation). Scheduling a whole program is not possible as too many constraints and objectives interact. We decompose high-level scheduling in three steps. Step 1: Coarse-grain scheduling tries to exploit parallelism and locality of the whole program (in particular in loops, possibly imperfectly nested) with a rough view of the target architecture....

Restricted ideals and the groupability property. Tools for temporal reasoning

J. Martínez, P. Cordero, G. Gutiérrez, I. P. de Guzmán (2003)

Kybernetika

In the field of automatic proving, the study of the sets of prime implicants or implicates of a formula has proven to be very important. If we focus on non-classical logics and, in particular, on temporal logics, such study is useful even if it is restricted to the set of unitary implicants/implicates [P. Cordero, M. Enciso, and I. de Guzmán: Structure theorems for closed sets of implicates/implicants in temporal logic. (Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence 1695.) Springer–Verlag, Berlin 1999]....

Restricted nondeterministic read-once branching programs and an exponential lower bound for integer multiplication

Beate Bollig (2001)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Branching programs are a well established computation model for Boolean functions, especially read-once branching programs have been studied intensively. In this paper the expressive power of nondeterministic read-once branching programs, more precisely the class of functions representable in polynomial size, is investigated. For that reason two restricted models of nondeterministic read-once branching programs are defined and a lower bound method is presented. Furthermore, the first exponential...

Restricted Nondeterministic Read-Once Branching Programs and an Exponential Lower Bound for Integer Multiplication

Beate Bollig (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

In this paper the expressive power of nondeterministic read-once branching programs, more precisely the class of functions representable in polynomial size, is investigated.

ReSySTER: A hybrid recommender system for Scrum team roles based on fuzzy and rough sets

Ricardo Colomo-Palacios, Israel González-Carrasco, José Luis López-Cuadrado, Ángel García-Crespo (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Agile development is a crucial issue within software engineering because one of the goals of any project leader is to increase the speed and flexibility in the development of new commercial products. In this sense, project managers must find the best resource configuration for each of the work packages necessary for the management of software development processes in order to keep the team motivated and committed to the project and to improve productivity and quality. This paper presents ReSySTER,...

Return words in Sturmian and episturmian words

Jacques Justin, Laurent Vuillon (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Considering each occurrence of a word w in a recurrent infinite word, we define the set of return words of w to be the set of all distinct words beginning with an occurrence of w and ending exactly just before the next occurrence of w in the infinite word. We give a simpler proof of the recent result (of the second author) that an infinite word is Sturmian if and only if each of its factors has exactly two return words in it. Then, considering episturmian infinite words, which are a natural generalization...

Returning and non-returning parallel communicating finite automata are equivalent

Ashish Choudhary, Kamala Krithivasan, Victor Mitrana (2007)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

A parallel communicating automata system consists of several automata working independently in parallel and communicating with each other by request with the aim of recognizing a word. Rather surprisingly, returning parallel communicating finite automata systems are equivalent to the non-returning variants. We show this result by proving the equivalence of both with multihead finite automata. Some open problems are finally formulated.
