Is "best-so-far" a good algorithmic performance metric?
In evolutionary computation, experimental results are commonly analyzed using an algorithmic performance metric called best-so-far. While best-so-far can be a useful metric, its u...

Making a case for a Green500 list
For decades now, the notion of “performance” has been synonymous with “speed” (as measured in FLOPS, short for floating-point operations per second). Unfortunately, this ...
