Abstract—As programmers are asked to manage more complicated parallel machines, it is likely that they will become increasingly dependent on tools such as multi-threaded data rac...
Application specific processors offer the potential of rapidly designed logic specifically constructed to meet the performance and area demands of the task at hand. Recently, t...
Familiar evaluation methodologies for information retrieval (IR) are not well suited to the task of comparing systems in many real settings. These systems and evaluation methods m...
Embedded systems are often used in a safety-critical context, e.g. in airborne or vehicle systems. Typically, timing constraints must be satisfied so that real-time embedded syste...
Personalized search systems have evolved to utilize heterogeneous features including document hyperlinks, category labels in various taxonomies and social tags in addition to free...
