Lazy programs are beautiful, but they are slow because they build many thunks. Simple measurements show that most of these thunks are unnecessary: they are in fact always evaluate...
This paper proposes a new randomized strategy for adaptive MCMC using Bayesian optimization. This approach applies to nondifferentiable objective functions and trades off explor...
In this article, different techniques for 'pointer swizzling" are classified and evaluated for optimizing the access to main-memory resident persistent objects. To speed ...
Effective pedagogical strategies are important for e-learning environments. While it is assumed that an effective learning environment should craft and adapt its actions to the use...

In this paper, we evaluate an adaptive loop parallelization strategy (i.e., a strategy that allows each loop nest to execute using different number of processors if doing so is be...
