This paper describes research concerned with automating the monitoring and control of telecommunication networks. It describes an Interactive Real-Time Telecommunications Network Management System (IRTNMS) developed to diagnose and solve problems occurring in the telecommunications network in real time. IRTNMS builds on the Procedural Reasoning System (PRS) which, unlike traditional monitoring ...

TMSA is a concept prototype developed to support NASA Test Directors (NTDs) in schedule execution monitoring during the later stages of a Shuttle countdown. The program detects qualitative and quantitative constraint violations in near real-time. The next version will support incremental rescheduling, and reason over a substantially larger number of scheduled events. INTRODUCTION The Time Manag...

As the microprocessor industry struggles to deliver higher performance superscalar and VLIW processors, memory access penalties have become a major issue. The growing disparity between processor and memory performance will make cache misses increasingly expensive. Additionally, data caches are not always used e ciently, resulting in large numbers of data cache misses. In numeric programs there ...
