Abstract—We present a silicon neuron with a dynamic, active leak that enables precise spike-timing with respect to a time-varying input signal. Our neuron models the mammalian bu...
Rapid increases in computing and communication performance are exacerbating the long-standing problem of performance-limited input/output. Indeed, for many otherwise scalable para...

Today, neither transactional provisions, in general, nor concurrency control, in particular, of DBMS-based processing are tailored to the specific needs of large and collaborative...
In the context of mobile data access, data caching is fundamental for both performance and functionality. For this reason there have been many studies into developing energy-effi...
