Abstract--This paper proposes an analytical model to estimate the cost of running an affinity-based thread schedule on multicore systems. The model consists of three submodels to e...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to model shape variations. It encodes sparsity, exploits geometric redundancy, and accounts for the different degrees of local variation...
The problem of solving sparse Systems of Linear Algebraic Equations (SLAE) by parallel Monte Carlo numerical methods is considered. The almost optimal Monte Carlo algorithms are pr...
Many practitioners who use EM and related algorithms complain that they are sometimes slow. When does this happen, and what can be done about it? In this paper, we study the gener...

We investigate asymptotically optimal keyword auctions, that is, auctions which maximize revenue as the number of bidders grows. We do so under two alternative behavioral assumpti...
