The use of threads is becoming commonplace in both sequential and parallel programs. This paper describes our design and initial experience with non-trace based performance instru...
We present a unified framework for reasoning about worst-case regret bounds for learning algorithms. This framework is based on the theory of duality of convex functions. It brin...
Simulation, especially discrete event simulation (DES), is used in a variety of disciplines where numerical methods are difficult or impossible to apply. One problem with this met...
This paper proposes a novel way to use virtual memorymapped communication (VMMC) to reduce the failover time on clusters. With the VMMC model, applications’ virtual address spac...
CT With the development of dynamic compilers for Java, Java’s performance promises to rival that of equivalent C/C++ binary executions. This should ensure that Java will become t...
