Machine Learning-Driven Automatic Program Transformation to Increase Performance in Heterogeneous Architectures
We present a program transformation approach to convert procedural code into functionally equivalent code adapted to a given platform. Our framework is based on the application of guarded transformation rules ...

A Read-Copy Update based parallel server for distributed crowd simulations
The Read-Copy Update (RCU) synchronization method was designed to cope with multiprocessor scalability some years ago, and it was included in the Linux kernel October of 2002. Recently, libraries providing user-s...

Tracking Causality by Visualization of Multi-Agent Interactions Using Causality Graphs
Programming multi-agent systems is a hard task and requires tools to assist in the process of testing, validation and verification of both MAS specifications and source code. In this paper, we propose the use ...

Using Semantic Causality Graphs to Validate MAS Models
Multi-agent systems methodologies define tasks and tools covering all the development cycle. Modelling and implementation activities are well supported and experimented. However, there has been few effort inve...
