An Attribute Grammar Based Framework for Machine Dependent Computational Optimizations of Media Processing Algorithms

Media processing algorithms are typically computation intensive, and in complexity constrained environments, nd-ing the most computational eecient algorithm is critical. In this paper, we present an attribute grammar based framework , which captures the computational complexity of an algorithm in a machine dependent manner. Using this formalism , computational optimality can be deened; a media ...

Grammatical approaches to design

A grammar is a definition of a language written in a transformational form. To the extent that design requirements and designed artifacts can be represented by some language, and to the extent that design is a transformation from function to form, grammars may facilitate the development of theories and methods for design. Furthermore, the computational complexity of various grammatical formalis...

Media processing algorithms are typically computationally intensive, and in complexity constrained environments, finding the most computationally efficient algorithm is critical. In this paper, we present an attribute grammar based framework which captures the computational complexity Using this formalism, a media processing algorithm can be optimally and automatically tuned to a particular mac...

On Attribute Grammars Without Atribute Synthesis

We characterize precisely the power of attribute grammars when all functions are identities (such attribute grammars are known to simulate functionless logic programs). In the general case, the problem of deciding whether a given grammar generates a given string is complete for exponential time. Even in the absence of recursion, the problem is complete for polynomial space. In grammars with bou...
