This paper considers the problem of performing tasks in asynchronous distributed settings. This problem, called DoAll, has been substantially studied in synchronous models, but th...
Many applications of parallel I/O perform non-contiguous file accesses: instead of accessing a single (large) block of data in a file, a number of (smaller) blocks of data scatt...
The pagination problem of complex documents is in placing text and floating objects on pages in such a way that each object appears close to, but not before, its text reference. ...
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
Pre-execution attacks cache misses for which conventional address-prediction driven prefetching is ineffective. In pre-execution, copies of cache miss computations are isolated fr...
