Grid computing is a form of distributed computing that involves coordinating and sharing computing, application, data storage or network resources across dynamic and geographicall...
We review the basic principles of Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods, the randomizations that turn them into variancereduction techniques, and the main classes of constructions under...
Architectural simulation has achieved a prominent role in the system design cycle by providing designers the ability to quickly examine a wide variety of design choices. However, ...
This paper introduces a modified version of the well known global optimization technique named line search method. The modifications refer to the way in which the direction and th...
As microprocessors continue to evolve, many optimizations reach a point of diminishing returns. We introduce HLS, a hybrid processor simulator which uses statistical models and sy...
