Probabilistic counter updates for predictor hysteresis and stratification
Hardware counters are a fundamental building block of modern high-performance processors. This paper explores two applications of probabilistic counter updates, in which the outpu...

Data-Parallel Primitives for Spatial Operations
Data-parallel primitives for performing operations on the PM1 quadtree and the bucket PMR quadtree are presented using the scan model. Algorithms are described for building these ...

Fluctuating crosstalk, deterministic noise, and GA scalability
This paper extends previous work showing how fluctuating crosstalk in a deterministic fitness function introduces noise into genetic algorithms. In that work, we modeled fluctuati...

Impact of Function Pointers on the Call Graph
Maintenance activities are made more difficult when pointers are heavily used in source code: the programmer needs to build a mental model of memory locations and of the way they ...
