Amibe: An Imperative Programming Language With First Class Continuations, Yuting Wang
Master's Theses
A continuation represents the future of an execution. It is often used as an intermediate representation(IR) to compile functional programming languages, make control flow explicit and full beta-reduction(function inlining) possible. Continuations are also a language feature that gives user the ability to completely control the execution control flow(first class continuation). Efficient implementation of first class continuation is important for languages that need non-determinism and backtracking(e.g., COMET). We present a prototype imperative programming language with first class continuation -- AMIBE. AMIBE uses the LLVM compiler infrastructure which is attractive for its optimizing tools and overall modern organization. However, LLVM does not …

Animation And Visualization Of 3d Underwater Sensor Networks, Matthew T. Tran
Master's Theses
Simulation and visualization are critical for the development of new systems and protocols in the area of computer networking. As real-world field testing is expensive and time-consuming, simulations are often preferred as they can be performed repeatedly and inexpensively while still reflecting the outcome of field tests to an extent. Visualizations of the simulation and field test results often follow to provide researchers with a vivid animation of the events, allowing for a much more intuitive understanding of the system than tediously reading through trace files. While there are currently a multitude of simulators and animators for land-based networks, few …
