Abstract. Finite-state machines are the most pervasive models of computation, not only in theoretical computer science, but also in all of its applications to real-life problems, a...
Robots often incorporate computational models of visual attention to streamline processing. Even though the number of visual attention systems employed on robots has increased dram...
A method is presented for modeling application performance on parallel computers in terms of the performance of microkernels from the HPC Challenge benchmarks. Specifically, the a...
