A generative and component based approach to reuse in database applications.

Conference Proceeding
Wang, B. H. (., Liu, X., & Kerridge, J. (2002)
A generative and component based approach to reuse in database applications. In 5th Generative Programming and Component Engineering Young Researcher Workshop
The development of database application systems will benefit from high reusability because similar design circumstances recur frequently in database developments. However, res...

Synchronisation primitives for highly parallel discrete event simulations

Conference Proceeding
Kerridge, J., Welch, P., & Wood, D. (1999)
Synchronisation primitives for highly parallel discrete event simulations. In Proceedings of the 32nd Annual Hawaii International Conference on Systems Sciences. 1999. HICSS-32https://doi.org/10.1109/hicss.1999.773084
A new set of synchronisation primitives is described that simplifies the control of very large numbers of fine-grained parallel processes. The new primitives are derived from ...
