In this paper we propose a model to predict the performance of synchronous discrete event simulation. The model considers parameters including the number of active objects per cyc...
Modern computer architectures increasingly depend on mechanisms that estimate future control flow decisions to increase performance. Mechanisms such as speculative execution and p...
Commercial applications are an important, yet often overlooked, workload with significantly different characteristics from technical workloads. The potential impact of these diffe...

Static timing analysis of embedded software is important for systems with hard real-time constraints. To accurately estimate time bounds, it is essential to model the underlying m...
This research uses a Design of Experiments (DOE) approach to build a predictive model of the performance of a combinatorial optimization heuristic over a range of heuristic tuning...
