Data prefetching has long been an important technique to amortize the effects of the memory wall, and is likely to remain so in the current era of multi-core systems. Most prefetc...
One of the major issues faced by the semiconductor industry today is that of reducing chip yields. As the process technologies have scaled to smaller feature sizes, chip yields ha...
Real-time applications often have mixed hard and soft deadlines, can be preempted subject to the cost of context switching or the restart of computation, and have various data dep...
Multiagent learning literature has investigated iterated twoplayer games to develop mechanisms that allow agents to learn to converge on Nash Equilibrium strategy profiles. Such ...
The particle swarm optimization algorithm was showed to converge rapidly during the initial stages of a global search, but around global optimum, the search process will become ve...
