The high degree of complexity and autonomy of future robotic space missions, such as Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), poses serious challenges in assuring their reliability and efï¬...
JPEG2000 is the latest still image coding standard from the JPEG committee, which adopts new algorithms such as Embedded Block Coding with Optimized Truncation (EBCOT) and Discret...
Malicious code is an increasingly important problem that threatens the security of computer systems. The traditional line of defense against malware is composed of malware detecto...
— This paper demonstrates that the algorithmic performance of end user programs may be greatly affected by the two or three level caching scheme of the processor, and we introduc...
The negative performance impact of branch mis-predictions can be reduced by exploiting control independence (CI). When a branch mis-predicts, the wrong-path instructions up to the...
