— Embedded processors are required to achieve high performance while running on batteries. Thus, they must exploit all the possible means available to reduce energy consumption w...
Modern programs frequently employ sophisticated modular designs. As a result, performance problems cannot be identified from costs attributed to routines in isolation; understand...

A recent theoretical investigation of modular representations shows that certain modularizations can introduce a distance bias into a landscape. This was a static analysis, and em...

This paper describes the application of evolutionary search to the problem of Flash memory wear-out. The operating parameters of Flash memory are notoriously difficult to determin...
Set-associative caches are traditionally managed using hardwarebased lookup and replacement schemes that have high energy overheads. Ideally, the caching strategy should be tailor...
