Simulating vehicular traffic flows using the Circal System. (1994)
Report
Russell, G., Cowie, A., McInnes, J., Bate, M., & Milne, G. (1994). Simulating vehicular traffic flows using the Circal System

Modern civil engineers have big problems on their hands; more cars use our road networks every year, leading to ever increasing congestion. Knowing how to change a road network to relieve congestion without spending millions of pounds doing so is a t... Read More about Simulating vehicular traffic flows using the Circal System..

Rapid simulation of urban traffic using FPGAs. (1994)
Report
Russell, G., Shaw, P., McInnes, J., & Ferguson, N. (1994). 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 for traffic movement. In this report, we introduce a discrete simulation sys... Read More about Rapid simulation of urban traffic using FPGAs..

Memory resident databases: reliability, compression and performance. (1993)
Report
Cockshott, W. P., Cowie, A., Russell, G., & McGregor, D. (1993). 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 with all-semiconductor data stores. A mechanism is presented to achieve high...

A survey of architectures for memory resident databases. (1993)
Report
Russell, G., & Cockshott, W. P. (1993). 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 implementations of persistent architectures exist. In the first half of this... Read More about A survey of architectures for memory resident databases..

An object-based processor cache. (1993)
Report
Russell, G., & Shaw, P. (1993). 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 object-level abstraction mechanism over the traditional processorÕs virtual a... Read More about An object-based processor cache..

A stack-based register set. (1993)
Report
Russell, G., & Shaw, P. (1993). 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, approaches to register windowing have changed little since their introduc... Read More about A stack-based register set..
