ERCIM News is the magazine of ERCIM. Published quarterly, it reports on joint actions of the ERCIM partners, and aims to reflect the contribution made by ERCIM to the European Community in Information Technology and Applied Mathematics. Through short articles and news items, it provides a forum for the exchange of information between the institutes and also with the wider scientific community. ...

General Purpose Work Flow Languages General Purpose Work Flow Languages *

Work ow management requires language support for work ow speciication and task speciication. Many approaches and systems for work ow managementtherefore ooer at least one new language for work ow speciication; task speciication is usually done in a traditional language. This is motivated in particular by the fact that many components already exist and the task of the work ow tool is the speciic...

Towards a Unified General Purpose Cad System at Cern

Several different CAD systems are in use at CERN today. Most of the 3D design work for the LHC is being done using Euclid from MDTVision. For 2D design work AutoCAD is widely used. Also, various special design tools exist for tasks such as electrical design and schematics. Even though the LHC design will be finished with Euclid, it has been clear since several years that a new 3D CAD system wil...

General-Purpose Autonomic Computing

The success of mainstream computing is largely due to the widespread availability of general-purpose architectures and of generic approaches that can be used to solve real-world problems cost-effectively and across a broad range of application domains. In this chapter, we propose that a similar generic framework is used to make the development of autonomic solutions cost effective, and to estab...
