Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservati...
The I/O access patterns of many parallel applications consist of accesses to a large number of small, noncontiguous pieces of data. If an application's I/O needs are met by m...
Detection of speckle in ultrasound (US) images has been regarded as an important research topic in US imaging, mainly focusing on two specific applications: improving signal to no...
This paper presents dynamic feedback, a technique that enables computations to adapt dynamically to different execution environments. A compiler that uses dynamic feedback produce...
Genetic algorithms (GAs) and evolution strategies (ESs) are two widely used evolutionary algorithms. The main differences between GAs and ESs lie in their representations and varia...
