Clusters of computers have emerged as mainstream parallel and distributed platforms for high-performance, highthroughput and high-availability computing. To enable effective resou...
We present an in-kernel disk prefetcher which uses speculative execution to determine what data an application is likely to require in the near future. By placing our design withi...
This paper presents a new strategy for designing the parallel phone recognizers for spoken language recognition. Given a collection of parallel phone recognizers, we select a subs...
We present a novel action recognition method which is based on combining the effective description properties of Local Binary Patterns with the appearance invariance and adaptabil...
As data centers and end users become increasingly reliant on virtualization technology, more efficient and accurate methods of profiling such systems are needed. However, under vir...
