This paper addresses the problem of developing appropriate features for use in direct modeling approaches to speech recognition, such as those based on Maximum Entropy models or S...
The era of parallel computing for the masses is here, but writing correct parallel programs remains far more difficult than writing sequential programs. Aside from a few domains,...
Thread escape analysis conservatively determines which objects may be accessed in more than one thread. Thread escape analysis is useful for a variety of purposes – finding rac...
Instruction combining is an optimization to replace a sequence of instructions with a more efficient instruction yielding the same result in a fewer machine cycles. When we use it...
Memory usage analysis is an important problem for resource-constrained mobile devices, especially under mission- or safety-critical circumstances. Program codes running on or bein...
