Programming robots to carry out useful tasks is both a complex and non-trivial exercise. A simple and intuitive method to allow humans to train and shape robot behaviour is clearl...

Abstract. We reexamine the limits of parallelism available in programs, using runtime reconstruction of program data-flow graphs. While limits of parallelism have been examined in...
Trace-driven simulation of superscalar processors is particularly complicated. The dynamic nature of superscalar processors combined with the static nature of traces can lead to l...
