Application specific processors offer the potential of rapidly designed logic specifically constructed to meet the performance and area demands of the task at hand. Recently, t...
Much research has been done on techniques to teach students how to program. However, it is usually difficult to quantify exactly how students work. Instructors typically only see ...
This paper presents a technique called “workload decomposition” in which the CPU workload is decomposed in two parts: on-chip and off-chip. The on-chip workload signifies the ...
Evolutionary testing is an effective technique for automatically generating good quality test data. However, for structural testing, the technique degenerates to random testing i...
Continuous testing uses excess cycles on a developer’s workstation to continuously run regression tests in the background, providing rapid feedback about test failures as source...
