A Fresh Look at Multicanonical Monte Carlo from a Telecom Perspective
—The Multicanonical Monte Carlo (MMC) technique is a new form of adaptive importance sampling (IS). Thanks to its blind adaptation algorithm, it does not require an in-depth syst...

Performance modeling using Monte Carlo simulation
Abstract-- Cycle accurate simulation has long been the primary tool for micro-architecture design and evaluation. Though accurate, the slow speed often imposes constraints on the e...
