Abstract--Packet matching plays a critical role in the performance of many network devices and a tremendous amount of research has already been invested to come up with better opti...
Niching is an important technique for multimodal optimization. Most existing niching methods require specification of certain niching parameters in order to perform well. These nic...
To address the productivity bottlenecks in power analysis and optimization of modern systems, we propose to treat power as a signal and leverage the rich set of signal processing ...
Running several sub-optimal algorithms and choosing the optimal one is a common procedure in computer science, most notably in the design of approximation algorithms. This paper d...
Message passing overhead is often a substantial source of runtime overhead in object-oriented applications. To combat this performance problem, a number of techniques have been de...
