Efficient system-level design is increasingly relying on hierarchical design-space exploration, as well as compositional methods, to shorten time-to-market, leverage design re-use...
Parallel file subsystems in today’s high-performance computers adopt many I/O optimization strategies that were designed for distributed systems. These strategies, for instance...

—The industry is now in agreement that the future of architecture design lies in multiple cores. As a consequence, all computer systems today, from embedded devices to petascale ...
Many Internet applications employ multi-tier software architectures. The performance of such multi-tier Internet applications is typically measured by the end-toend response times...
We consider two of the most commonly cited measures of retrieval performance: average precision and R-precision. It is well known that average precision and R-precision are highly...
