The effective use of processor caches is crucial to the performance of applications. It has been shown that cache misses are not evenly distributed throughout a program. In applic...
Recent research has shown that programs often exhibit value locality. Such locality occurs when a code segment, although executed repeatedly in the program, takes only a small num...
Empirical search is a strategy used during the installation of library generators such as ATLAS, FFTW, and SPIRAL to identify the algorithm or the version of an algorithm that del...
Applications using traditional protocol stacks (e.g TCP/IP) from wired networks do not function efficiently in mobile wireless scenarios. This is primarily due to the layered archi...
Geospatial image data obtained by satellites and aircraft are increasingly important to a wide range of applications, such as disaster management, climatology, and environmental m...
