As VLSI fabrication technology progresses to 65nm feature sizes and smaller, transistors no longer operate as ideal switches. This motivates verifying digital circuits using contin...
Control methods are being used increasingly for uncertainty management and QoS in modern web server systems. Previous approaches have suggested combined feedforward and feedback c...
This material was presented in a series of lectures at fosad, a summer school on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, at the University of Bologna Center at Bertinoro in Se...
Having access to large data sets for the purpose of predictive data mining does not guarantee good models, even when the size of the training data is virtually unlimited. Instead,...
We present an improved sweep metaheuristic for discrete event simulation optimization. The sweep algorithm is a tree search similar to beam search. The basic idea is to run a limi...
