Parallel Option Price Valuations with the Explicit Finite Difference Method
Abstract. We show how computations such as those involved in American or European-style option price valuations with the explicit finite difference method can be performed in par...

Efficiently evolving programs through the search for novelty
A significant challenge in genetic programming is premature convergence to local optima, which often prevents evolution from solving problems. This paper introduces to genetic pro...

Evaluating automatic parallelization for efficient execution on shared-memory multiprocessors
We present a parallel code generation algorithm for complete applications and a new experimental methodology that tests the efficacy of our approach. The algorithm optimizes for d...

Laplacian PCA and Its Applications
Dimensionality reduction plays a fundamental role in data processing, for which principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used. In this paper, we develop the Laplacian PCA (LPC...

Competitive Parallel Disk Prefetching and Buffer Management
We provide a competitive analysis framework for online prefetching and buffer management algorithms in parallel I/O systems, using a read-once model of block references. This has ...
