We report a study to determine the impact of four types of disturbances on the failure intensity of a software product undergoing system test. Hardware failures, discovery of a cr...
As microprocessors continue to evolve, many optimizations reach a point of diminishing returns. We introduce HLS, a hybrid processor simulator which uses statistical models and sy...
Reputation reporting systems have emerged as an important risk management mechanism in online trading communities. However, the predictive value of these systems can be compromise...
We give the first rigorous upper bounds on the error of temporal difference (td) algorithms for policy evaluation as a function of the amount of experience. These upper bounds pr...
People accessing documents via the Internet typically experience latencies in retrieving content. We discuss continual-computation policies that dictate strategies for prefetching...
