The memory consistency model in parallel programming controls the order in which operations performed by one thread may be observed by another. Language designers have been reluct...
We prove new lower bounds for locally decodable codes and private information retrieval. We show that a 2-query LDC encoding nbit strings over an ℓ-bit alphabet, where the decode...
Although undirected cycles in directed graphs of Bayesian belief networks have been thoroughly studied, little attention has so far been given to a systematic analysis of directed ...
Silicon compilers are often used in conjunction with Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) to deliver flexibility, fast prototyping, and accelerated time-to-market. Many of these...
Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless ad hoc networks since batteries are the only energy source to power the nodes. One major metric for energy conservation is to r...
