Implementations of real number computations have largely been unusable in practice because of their very bad performance, especially in comparison to floating point arithmetic imp...
This paper provides lower bounds on the energy consumption and demonstrates an energy-time trade-off in optical computations. All the lower bounds are shown to have the matching u...
Building robots can be a tough job because the designer has to predict the interactions between the robot and the environment as well as to deal with them. One solution to cope the...
Queueing models are routinely used to analyze the performance of software systems. However, contrary to common assumptions, the time that a software server takes to complete jobs ...
