Exploiting In-Kernel Data Paths to Improve I/O Throughput and CPU Availability
We present the motivation, design, implementation, and performance evaluation of a UNIX kernel mechanism capable of establishing fast in-kernel data pathways between I/O objects. ...

An approach to improving the structure of error-handling code in the linux kernel
nguage does not provide any abstractions for exception handling or other forms of error handling, leaving programmers to devise their own conventions for detecting and handling er...

Agnostic Learning versus Prior Knowledge in the Design of Kernel Machines
Abstract— The optimal model parameters of a kernel machine are typically given by the solution of a convex optimisation problem with a single global optimum. Obtaining the best p...

Coordinatized Kernels and Catalytic Reductions: An Improved FPT Algorithm for Max Leaf Spanning Tree and Other Problems
Abstract. We describe some new, simple and apparently general methods for designing FPT algorithms, and illustrate how these can be used to obtain a signi cantly improved FPT algor...
