Given large circuit sizes, high clock frequencies, and possibly extreme operating environments, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are capable of heating beyond their designed...
Embedded systems are often used in a safety-critical context, e.g. in airborne or vehicle systems. Typically, timing constraints must be satisfied so that real-time embedded syste...
This paper describes the principles of an original adaptive interconnect for a computational cluster. Torus topology (2d or 3d) is used as a basis but nodes are allowed to effecti...
Entity information management (EIM) is a nascent IR research area that investigates the information management process about entities instead of documents. It is motivated by the ...
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...
