The design of Postgres
- In Proceedings of the SIGMOD Conference
, 1986
"... This paper presents the preliminary design of a new database management system, called POSTGRES, that is the successor to the INGRES relational database system. The main design goals of the new system are to: 1) provide better support for complex objects, 2) provide user extendibility for data types ..."

of multiple tightly-coupled processors, and custom designed VLSI chips, and 6) make as few changes as possible (preferably none) to the relational model. The paper describes the query language, programming langauge interface, system architecture, query processing strategy, and storage system for the new
Password Swordfish: Verbal Humour in the Interface
- University of Twente
, 1996
"... Humour will be a necessity in future interfaces, especially in the area at the crossroads of entertainment and education, the so called edutainment. Some considerations on the state of the art in natural langauge processing and on computational humour prospects are presented, as well as some ideas f ..."

Language Interoperability Mechanisms for High-Performance Scientific Applications
- SIAM Workshop on Object-Oriented Methods for Inter-operable Scientific and Engineering Computing
, 1998
"... Abstract Language interoperability is a difficult problem facing the developers and users of large numerical software packages. Language choices often hamper the reuse and sharing of numerical libraries, especially in a scientific computing environment that uses a breadth of programming languages, ..."

, including C, c ++, Java, various Fortran dialects, and scripting languages such as Python. In this paper, we propose a new approach to langauge interoparability for high-performance scientific applications based on Interface Definition Language (IDL) techniques. We investigate the modifications necessary

Component Assemblies and Component Runtimes
"... We propose a component programming language that supports an integrated notion of both compile-time and runtime component. The centerpiece of this paper is the static, compile time notion of assembly, complementing our previous work on the dynamic, runtime notion of cell. An assembly is a declarativ ..."

declarative, stateless piece of code that facilitates code combination. It offers explicit typed interfaces to outsiders, called linkers, which can be used to link smaller assemblies into bigger, compound assemblies. Each assembly may in turn be loaded at run-time, producing a cell in the runtime environment
Grounding Linguistic Analysis in Control Applications
, 2012
"... This thesis addresses the problem of grounding linguistic analysis in control applica-tions, such as automated maintenance of computers and game playing. We assume access to natural language documents that describe the desired behavior of a con-trol algorithm, either via explicit step-by-step instru ..."

-by-step instructions, via high-level strategy advice, or by specifying the dynamics of the control domain. Our goal is to develop techniques for automatically interpreting such documents, and leveraging the textual information to effectively guide control actions. We show that in this setting, langauge analysis can
ARGUMENT FROM ARISTOTLE TO ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE: A MODEST
"... Abstract This paper examines three different ways in which language research can directly bear on the scholarship of people primarily interested in the processes of social influence. First, a discussion is offered on how the inclusion of language variables in established theories of social influence ..."

and contradictory findings in the attitude change research literature. After making arguments about the interface between language and social influence processes, it is suggested that potential methodological contribu-tions could accrue to attitude change researchers if they were to pay more attention to research
Nectar: A browser-agnostic contextual web annotation tool

Abstract Nectar enables users of the MoinMoin collaborative wiki editing environment to conveniently create and view in-text annotations to wiki documents without disturbing the underlying document. It is designed to facilitate online collaboration for traditional classroom learning by allowing auth ..."
