Scalability is a crucial factor in performance evaluation and analysis of parallel and distributed systems. Much effort has been devoted to scalability research and several metric...
In this paper, we propose the novel concept of probabilistic design for multimedia systems and a methodology to quickly explore such design space at an early design stage. The pro...
Many of the recently proposed techniques to reduce power consumption in caches introduce an additional level of nondeterminism in cache access latency. Due to this additional late...
