You're welcome.

I don't suppose anybody knows where the missing papers _are_?

For example, a google search for "Coverage and profiling for realtime
tiny kernels" brought up two legacy organizations that locked the paper
away in a vault and then buried it in a sea trench:

  http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1900726.1901172
  http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=5577998

The old "give us money or you'll never see this paper again" tactic.
Why anybody would would want to "publish" their work through a non-funny
variant of the journal of irreproducible results is an open question,
but there you have it.  (I love the "downloads 0, citations 0" on the
ACM site.  Not-publishing the paper there has been, empirically, 100%
useless, and they provide the stats to prove it.)

Oh well...

Rob
