Confidence-Weighted linear classifiers (CW) and its successors were shown to perform well on binary and multiclass NLP problems. In this paper we extend the CW approach for sequen...
Today, a wide range of 802.11-based Wireless LANs (WLANs) have become dominant to provide wireless Internet access for file transfers. For engineering purposes, there is a need fo...
There is a growing interest in the use of speculative multithreading to speed up the execution of a program. In speculative multithreading model, threads are extracted from a sequ...
