Anh Nguyen-Tuong will present the paper in Anchorage at the DSN conference in June.
This paper builds on our pervious work on N-Variant Systems. It includes the earliest systems-related technical related work in any paper I’ve been involved in, and I doubt we’ll be able to get an earlier one anytime soon. It turns out efforts Nevil Maskelyne led back in the 1700s to compute astronomical tables is closely related to the techniques we describe in this paper.
