Prefetching is one approach to reducing the latency of memory operations in modern computer systems. In this paper, we describe the Markov prefetcher. This prefetcher acts as an i...
Tomorrow's multimedia applications will stress all parts of a computer system. To determine the computer resources needed to meet application demands we have developed a new ...
Antialiased pixel values are often computed as the mean of N point samples. Using uniformly distributed random samples, the central limit theorem predicts a variance of the mean o...
In this paper, we propose a novel observation-based admission control algorithm, in which a client is admitted for service by a multimedia server only if the predicted extrapolati...
