As the complexity and scale of current scientific and engineering applications grow, managing and transporting the large amounts of data they generate is quickly becoming a signif...
Parameter variations are a major factor causing powerperformance asymmetry in chip multiprocessors. In this paper, we analyze the effects of with-in-die (WID) process variations o...
Belief propagation (BP) is an effective algorithm for solving energy minimization problems in computer vision. However, it requires enormous memory, bandwidth, and computation beca...
