A typical storage hierarchy comprises of components with varying performance and cost characteristics, providing multiple options for data placement. We propose and evaluate a hie...
Abstract. The emergence of computing environments where smart devices are embedded pervasively in the physical world has made possible many interesting applications and has trigger...
Design-time decisions can often only cover certain scenarios and fail in efficiency when hard-to-predict system scenarios occur. This drives the development of run-time adaptive s...
Understanding user intent is key to designing an effective ranking system in a search engine. In the absence of any explicit knowledge of user intent, search engines want to diver...
Abstract—We present a silicon neuron with a dynamic, active leak that enables precise spike-timing with respect to a time-varying input signal. Our neuron models the mammalian bu...
