Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of an IP Library for the Synthesis of Image Compression SystemsChokri Souani, Ihsen Gazzah, Kamel BesbesTo design a hardware system we may use generated Intellectual Property (IP) cores from a library with optimized parameters. The IP parameters are area minimization, memory use optimization and speed acceleration. The designed system depends on such IP parameters. In this paper, we propose the design of an IP library optimized with different constraints. The created IPs may be used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredictive Autonomicity of Web Services in the MAWeS FrameworkEmilio P. Mancini, Massimiliano Rak, Roberto Torella, Umberto VillanoIn Web Services designs classical optimization techniques are not applicable. A possible solution to guarantee critical requirements is the use of an autonomic architecture, able to auto-configure and to auto-tune. This study presents MAWeS (MetaPL/HeSSE Autonomic Web Services), a framework whose aim is to support the development of self-optimizing predictive autonomic systems for Web service architectures. It adopts a simulation-based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeta Architecting: Towered a New Generation of Architecture Description LanguagesAdel Smeda, Tahar Khammaci, Mourad OussalahThe techniques of meta-modeling and meta-levels have become a mature concept and have been largely used to solve real problems in programming languages, distributed environments, knowledge representation, or data bases. In this article it is shown how the same techniques can be applied in component-based software architecture. It also shown the need to propose mechanisms of reflexivity within the domain … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Simulation of an Input Queuing Packet SwitchAzeddine Bilami, Mustapha Lalam, Mohamed BenmohammedMany Architectures of Internet routers, ATM and Ethernet switches have been proposed and analysed in literature. Theoretically reliable and valid solutions have been developed to achieve high performances, but a lot of them are not feasible in practice for commercial and technological reasons. Few papers develop the implementation and simulation aspects. The objective of this study is the design of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 19 Sep 2005 · 6,926 accessesView PDFCite
