Accurate performance predictions are difficult to achieve for parallel applications executing on production distributed systems. Conventional point-valued performance parameters a...
Performance models provide significant insight into the performance relationships between an application and the system used for execution. The major obstacle to developing perfor...

The highest fidelity representations of realistic real-world materials currently used comprise Bidirectional Texture Functions (BTF). The BTF is a six dimensional function dependi...
We study an extension of the "standard" learning models to settings where observing the value of an attribute has an associated cost (which might be different for differ...
We define a new set of functions called semi-monotone, a subclass of skew-supermodular functions. We show that the problem of augmenting a given graph to cover a symmetric semi-mo...
