"The term “design patterns” sounds a bit formal to the uninitiated and
can be somewhat off-putting when you first encounter it. But, in fact, design
patterns are just co...
This paper proposes a cycle accounting architecture for Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) processors that estimates the execution times for each of the threads had they been execu...
Explanations are a technique for reasoning about constraint propagation, which have been applied in many learning, backjumping and user-interaction algorithms for constraint progra...
Abstract. We introduce an approach to designing filtering algorithms by derivation from finite automata operating on constraint signatures. We illustrate this approach in two cas...
Several different kinds of performance models can be generated from sets of scenarios that describe typical responses of a system, and their use of resources. The Core Scenario Mod...
