    motd by Rob Kolstad Dr. Rob Kolstad has long served as editor of ;login:. He is also head coach of the USENIX- sponsored USA Computing Olympiad. <[email protected]> Needs In the late 1960s, when the psychological world embraced behaviorism and psychoanalysis as its twin grails, Abraham Maslow proposed a hierarchy of needs. This hierarchy was brought to mind because I am hosting the Polish computing champion for a short visit, and he often asks questions of the sort, "Why would anyone need such a large car?" Maslow listed, in order: • Physiological needs, including air, food, water, warmth, shelter, etc. Lack of these things can cause death. • Safety needs, for coping with emergencies, chaos (e.g., rioting), and other periods of disorganization. • Needs for giving and receiving love, affection, and belonging, as well as the ability to escape loneliness/alienation. • Esteem needs, centering on a stable, high level of self-respect and respect from others, in order to gain satisfaction and self-confidence. Lack of esteem causes feelings of inferiority, weakness, helplessness, and worthlessness. "Self-actualization" needs were the big gun of the thesis. They exemplified the behavior of non-selfish adults and are, regrettably, beyond the scope of this short article. As I think about the context of "needs" vs. "wants" or "desires" in our culture, economy, and particularly among the group of readers of this publication, it seems that we're doing quite well for the easy needs (physiological needs and safety). I know many of my acquaintances (and myself!) are doing just super in their quest for better gadgetry, toys, and "stuff" ("whoever dies with the most toys wins").

  • Microkernel Mechanisms for Improving the Trustworthiness of Commodity Hardware
    Microkernel Mechanisms for Improving the Trustworthiness of Commodity Hardware Yanyan Shen Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Computer Science and Engineering Faculty of Engineering March 2019 Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname/Family Name : Shen Given Name/s : Yanyan Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar : PhD Faculty : Faculty of Engineering School : School of Computer Science and Engineering Microkernel Mechanisms for Improving the Trustworthiness of Commodity Thesis Title : Hardware Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) The thesis presents microkernel-based software-implemented mechanisms for improving the trustworthiness of computer systems based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware that can malfunction when the hardware is impacted by transient hardware faults. The hardware anomalies, if undetected, can cause data corruptions, system crashes, and security vulnerabilities, significantly undermining system dependability. Specifically, we adopt the single event upset (SEU) fault model and address transient CPU or memory faults. We take advantage of the functional correctness and isolation guarantee provided by the formally verified seL4 microkernel and hardware redundancy provided by multicore processors, design the redundant co-execution (RCoE) architecture that replicates a whole software system (including the microkernel) onto different CPU cores, and implement two variants, loosely-coupled redundant co-execution (LC-RCoE) and closely-coupled redundant co-execution (CC-RCoE), for the ARM and x86 architectures. RCoE treats each replica of the software system as a state machine and ensures that the replicas start from the same initial state, observe consistent inputs, perform equivalent state transitions, and thus produce consistent outputs during error-free executions.

  • A Development Process Generative Pattern Language
    Proceedings of PLoP/94, Monticello, Il., August 1994 AT&T Bell Laboratories A Development Process Generative Pattern Language James O. Coplien – AT&T Bell Laboratories (708) 713-5384 [email protected] 1. Introduction This paper introduces a family of patterns that can be used to shape a new organization and its development processes. Patterns support emerging techniques in the software design community, where they are finding a new home as a way of understanding and creating computer programs. There is an increasing awareness that new program structuring techniques must be supported by suitable management techniques, and by appropriate organization structures; orga- nizational patterns are one powerful way to capture these. We believe that patterns are particularly suitable to organizational construction and evolution. Patterns form the basis of much of modern cultural anthropology: a culture is defined by its patterns of relationships. Also, while the works of Christopher Alexander1 deal with town planning and building architecture to support human enterprise and inter- action, it can be said that organization is the modern analogue to architecture in contemporary professional organiza- tions. Organizational patterns have a first-order effect on the ability of people to carry on. We believe that the physical architecture of the buildings supporting such work are the dual of the organizational patterns; these two worlds cross in the work of Thomas Allen at MIT.2 There is nothing new in taking a pattern perspective to organizational analysis. What is novel about the work here is its attempt to use patterns in a generative way. All architecture fundamentally concerns itself with control;3 here we use architecture to supplant process as the (indirect) means to controlling people in an organization.

(Ort, Datum) (Michael Zolda) i Abstract A real-time computer system is a computer system in which the correctness of the sys- tem behavior depends not only on the logic results of the computations, but also on the physical instant at which these results are produced. Today, most real-time computer systems are implemented as collections of software tasks that are executed concurrently on a suitable hardware platform consisting of one or multiple microprocessors or micro- processor cores. Obtaining the worst-case execution time (WCET) of each real-time task is an essential step in ensuring the correctness of such a system.
