Inter-process communication (ipc) has to be fast and e ective, otherwise programmers will not use remote procedure calls (RPC), multithreading and multitasking adequately. Thus ipc performance is vital for modern operating systems, especially µ-kernel based ones. Surprisingly, most µ

intentions to drop out of high school, which are later implemented, leading to actual dropout behavior. This model was tested with high school students (N = 4,537) by means of a prospective design. Results from analyses of variance and a structural equation modeling analysis (with L1SREL) were found

Current techniques for prefetching linked data structures (LDS) exploit the work available in one loop iteration or recursive call to overlap pointer chasing latency. Jumppointers, which provide direct access to non-adjacent nodes, can be used for prefetching when loop and recursive procedure

expression of power relationships. Outside the direct sphere of the state, the exercise of power within production organizations or in apparatuses of experience (such as the family) ultimately relied on the ability of these apparatuses to call upon the state (or para-states, such as the Church) to enforce

serious alternative. This work analyzes the implementation of both a client-server and a peer-to-peer networking model for the prototype shooter game Planet π4. Initially, a survey introduces recent academic approaches to peer-to-peer systems specifically designed for games. Of those, one system

for the target system, the combination of these results offers the first procedure for provably sound and complete narrowing computations for the whole class of the leftlinear constructor-based conditional rewrite systems. We address the differences between demand driven and lazy strategies and between narrowing

The remote service request, a form of remote procedure call, and the global pointer, a global naming mechanism, are two features at the heart of Nexus, a library for building distributed systems. NeXeme is an extension of Scheme that fully integrates both concepts in a mostly-functional framework
