We explore the utility of different types of topic models for retrieval purposes. Based on prior work, we describe several ways that topic models can be integrated into the retrie...
Non-uniform utilization of functional units in combination with hardware mechanisms such as clock gating leads to different power consumptions in different parts of a processor ch...
Abstract. The shared-cache contention on Chip Multiprocessors causes performance degradation to applications and hurts system fairness. Many previously proposed solutions schedule ...
Embedded processors like Intel’s XScale use dynamic branch prediction to improve performance. Due to the presence of context switches, the accuracy of these predictors is reduce...
Subword parallelism has succeeded in accelerating many multimedia applications. Subword permutation instructions have been proposed to efficiently rearrange subwords in or among r...
