—High instruction cache hit rates are key to high performance. One known technique to improve the hit rate of caches is to minimize cache interference by improving the layout of ...
Abstract—In this paper, we propose an optimal quadtree (QT)based motion estimator for video compression. It is optimal in the sense that for a given bit budget for encoding the d...
—We use recent network calculus results to study some properties of lossless multiplexing as it may be used in guaranteed service networks. We call network calculus a set of resu...
This work evaluates a few search strategies for Arabic monolingual and cross-lingual retrieval, using the TREC Arabic corpus as the test-bed. The release by NIST in 2001 of an Ara...
The optimal settings of retrieval parameters often depend on both the document collection and the query, and are usually found through empirical tuning. In this paper, we propose ...
