Rewrite Rules supporting Conditional Statements for Automatic Parallelization.
Abstract
Hurlin recently proposed a technique for automatic parallelization based on separation logic. This paper proposes an enhancement of the mechanism for situations where conditional statements are used in specifications of programs. With the proposed changes, specifications containing conditional statements are supported and programs can be automatically parallelized. Two approaches are identified and a preferable one is suggested. The proposed extension is illustrated by an exemplifying program and has been implemented.
Will be presented at The 11th Twente Student Conference on IT, to be held June 29, 2009
Solar transit of Atlantis and the Hubble space telescope
Posted by Pascal Kuyten in Artwork, Technology and Science on May 16th, 2009
In my childhood during summertime I was tracking sunspots in the backyard of my dad. In that time I used a rather small telescope, protecting my eyes with darkened negatives, sketching the movement of the spots in a notebook.
Thierry Legault managed to bring back these memories by shooting these incredible pictures of the Atlantis on a repair mission of the Hubble telescope.

My new phone!
Posted by Pascal Kuyten in Technology and Science on April 4th, 2009
It was about time to upgrade my old phone to a next gen: Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1.
I love the combination of the bright screen, QWERTY keyboard and classy design. Downside is storage size of just 500MB. So I ordered a 16GB Micro SDHC (SanDisk) 
For internet I will have to wait another two weeks to have my new Vodafone plan activated.

The Crisis of Credit Visualized
Posted by Pascal Kuyten in Artwork on February 21st, 2009
“The goal of giving form to a complex situation like the credit crisis is to quickly supply the essence of the situation to those unfamiliar and uninitiated. This project was completed as part of my thesis work in the Media Design Program, a graduate studio at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.” By Jonathan Jarvis.

Het is weer zover, tentamens, voor de gezonde SOG (Studie Ontwijkend gedrag) een filmpje ter inspiratie.

New Year in Yamal
Posted by Pascal Kuyten in Travelling on January 13th, 2009
Every year I travel one time-zone further east than last year, this year Sveta and I chose for Salekhard (GMT+5), a city exactly located at the polar circle in Arctic Urals in Russia.
