A blueprint for introducing disruptive technology into the internet

by Larry Peterson, Tom Anderson, David Culler, Timothy Roscoe , 2002
"... This paper argues that a new class of geographically distributed network services is emerging, and that the most effective way to design, evaluate, and deploy these services is by using an overlay-based testbed. Unlike conventional network testbeds, however, we advocate an approach that supports bot ..."

Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code

by Martin Fowler, Kent Beck, John Brant, William Opdyke, Don Roberts , 1999
"... As the application of object technology--particularly the Java programming language--has become commonplace, a new problem has emerged to confront the software development community. Significant numbers of poorly designed programs have been created by less-experienced developers, resulting in applic ..."

Low-Power CMOS Digital Design

by Anantha P. Chandrakasan, Samuel Sheng, Robert W. Brodersen - JOURNAL OF SOLID-STATE CIRCUITS. VOL 27, NO 4. APRIL 1992 413 , 1992
"... Motivated by emerging battery-operated applications that demand intensive computation in portable environments, techniques are investigated which reduce power consumption in CMOS digital circuits while maintaining computational throughput. Techniques for low-power operation are shown which use the ..."

the lowest possible supply voltage coupled with architectural, logic style, circuit, and technology optimizations. An architectural-based scaling strategy is presented which indicates that the optimum voltage is much lower than that determined by other scaling considerations. This optimum is achieved

DiamondTouch: a multi-user touch technology

by Paul Dietz, Darren Leigh , 2003
"... A technique for creating touch sensitive surfaces is proposed which allows multiple, simultaneous users to interact in an intuitive fashion. Touch location information is determined independently for each user, allowing each touch on the common surface to be associated with a particular user. The su ..."

. The surface gnerates location dependent electric fields, which are capacitively coupled through the users to receivers installed in the work environment. We describe the design of these sytems and their applications. Finally, we conclude with a description of the results we have obtained with a first

A Metrics Suite for Object Oriented Design

by Shyam R. Chidamber , Chris F. Kemerer , 1994
"... Given the central role that software development plays in the delivery and application of information technology, managers are increasingly focusing on process improvement in the software development area. This demand has spurred the provision of a number of new and/or improved approaches to softwa ..."

new technology for which established practices have yet to be developed. This research addresses these needs through the development and implementation of a new suite of metrics for 00 design. Metrics developed in previous research, while con-tributing to the field’s understanding of software

Surround-screen projection-based virtual reality: The design and implementation of the CAVE

by Carolina Cruz-neira, Daniel J. Sandin, Thomas A. Defanti , 1993
"... Abstract Several common systems satisfy some but not all of the VR This paper describes the CAVE (CAVE Automatic Virtual Environment) virtual reality/scientific visualization system in detail and demonstrates that projection technology applied to virtual-reality goals achieves a system that matches ..."

Determinants of perceived ease of use Integrating Control, Intrinsic Motivation, and Emotion into the Technology Acceptance Model.

by Viswanath Venkatesh - Information Systems Research , 2000
"... M uch previous research has established that perceived ease of use is an important factor influencing user acceptance and usage behavior of information technologies. However, very little research has been conducted to understand how that perception forms and changes over time. The current work pres ..."

Distributed Database Systems

by M. Tamer Özsu
"... this article, we discuss the fundamentals of distributed DBMS technology. We address the data distribution and architectural design issues as well as the algorithms that need to be implemented to provide the basic DBMS functions such as query processing, concurrency control, reliability, and replica ..."

The Future of Wires

by Mark Horowitz, Ron Ho, Ken Mai , 1999
"... this paper we first discuss the wire metrics of interest and examine them in a contemporary 0.25m process. We then discuss technology scaling over the next several generations, from SIA and other predictions, and how our wire metrics trend over that time. We will examine the delay and bandwidth lim ..."
