On the Convergence of Optimistic Policy Iteration
We consider a finite-state Markov decision problem and establish the convergence of a special case of optimistic policy iteration that involves Monte Carlo estimation of Q-values,...

Evaluating voltage islands in CMPs under process variations
Parameter variations are a major factor causing powerperformance asymmetry in chip multiprocessors. In this paper, we analyze the effects of with-in-die (WID) process variations o...

Mitigating Parameter Variation with Dynamic Fine-Grain Body Biasing
Parameter variation is detrimental to a processor’s frequency and leakage power. One proposed technique to mitigate it is Fine-Grain Body Biasing (FGBB), where different parts o...
