Second order stochastic dominance characterizes risk-averse preferences represented by expected utility. This paper supplies second order stochastic dominance conditions that char...
Traditional architecture design approaches hide hardware uncertainties from the software stack through overdesign, which is often expensive in terms of power consumption. The recen...
Abstract. This paper presents parallel approaches to the complete transient numerical analysis of stochastic reward nets (SRNs) for both shared and distributed-memory machines. Par...
Computer-vision attention processes allocate computational resources to different parts of visual input and can lead to faster object recognition and image analysis. This paper p...
Performance models are of increasing interest to professionals who do not have a background in mathematical analysis, it is important to provide additional mechanisms by developer...
