Flash memory is a storage medium that is becoming more and more popular. Though not yet fully embraced in traditional computing systems, Flash memory is prevalent in embedded syst...
Caches are very inefficiently utilized because not all the excess data fetched into the cache, to exploit spatial locality, is utilized. We define cache utilization as the percent...
Ensuring the correctness of multithreaded programs is difficult, due to the potential for unexpected and nondeterministic interactions between threads. Previous work has addresse...
Abstract. We classify component-based models of computation into component models and interface models. A component model speci es for each component how the component behaves in a...
This paper contains two contributions to very-low-bitrate video coding. First, we show that in contrast to common practice incremental techniques for rate-distortion optimization ...
