Since there is generally insufficient instruction level parallelism within a single basic block, higher performance is achieved by speculatively scheduling operations in superbloc...
Indirect branch prediction is likely to become increasingly important in the future because indirect branches occur more frequently in object-oriented programs. With misprediction ...
The selection of the branching variable can greatly affect the speed of the branch and bound solution of a mixed-integer or integer linear program. Traditional approaches to branc...
We study Timed Branching Processes (TBPs), a natural extension of (multitype) Branching Processes (BPs) where each entity is equipped with a finite set of private continuous variab...
Abstract. Solution techniques for Constraint Satisfaction and Optimisation Problems often make use of backtrack search methods, exploiting variable and value ordering heuristics. I...
