Accurate rapid simulation of urban traffic using discrete modelling
Increasing model complexity has traditionally been viewed as a key way of improving microscopic model accuracy. However, with complexity comes an increase in execution time. I...

Rapid simulation of urban traffic using FPGAs
Microscopic simulation of complex traffic models can take hours or even days on simulators build to run on a single processor machine. These simulators use continuous models f...
Memory resident databases: reliability, compression and performance.

Cockshott, W. P., Cowie, A., Russell, G. & McGregor, D. (1992)
Memory resident databases: reliability, compression and performance.
The paper argues that recent developments in non-volatile solid-state store allow a new implementation paradigm for databases. This involves replacing slow rotating storage wi...

An object-based processor cache
In the past, many persistent object-oriented architecture designs have been based on traditional processor technologies. Such architectures invariantly attempt to insert an ob...

A stack-based register set.
Register windowing has become a common sight in high speed processors, reducing the memory traffic required to preserve register contents over sub-routine invocations. However...

A survey of architectures for memory resident databases
Persistent object oriented architectures have been researched for many years, deriving initially from the Manchester University Atlas machine. In reality however, few actual i...
