A substantial literature has evolved focusing on the ownership structure of international strategic alliances (ISAs). Most of the relevant studies are theoretical in nature and concentrate on the conceptual factors that influence the choice between equity and non-equity structures. A smaller number of studies provide some empirical evidence on the importance of some of the conceptual factors. T...

Mobile computing is heavily dependent on battery life. Although circuit designs already take advantage of microelectronics and microarchitecture-level optimization techniques, device longevity can be further extended through energy aware compilation techniques. This communication gives an overview of software-based power aware techniques, namely re-starters to make temporary processor state vis...

Binary translation, as an important bridge for application compatibility between different instruction set architectures (ISAs), has attracted much attention in the industry. However, due to hardware resource limitations of target ISA, translation efficiency and practicability are poor. Recently, Apple made it possible run x86 programs on ARM through a technology called Rosetta based software-h...

This is a book that will show you even new to old thing. Forget it; it will be right fo...

Current approaches to handling indirect speech acts (ISAs) do not account for their sociolinguistic underpinnings (i.e., politeness strategies). Deeper understanding and appropriate generation of indirect acts will require mechanisms that integrate natural language (NL) understanding and generation with social information about agent roles and obligations, which we introduce in this paper. Addi...

T oday’s most commercially significant microprocessors remain firmly wedded to legacy instruction set architectures, some of which are now over a decade old. Despite the admitted shortcomings of these ISAs, manufacturers are reluctant to develop radically new ones because they risk losing the commercial advantage of their product’s existing software base. On the other side of the coin, software...
