- This paper describes techniques for optimizing range checks performed to detect array bound violations. In addition to the elimination of range check:s, the optimizations discuss...
─ Error tolerance formally captures the notion that – for a wide variety of applications including audio, video, graphics, and wireless communications – a defective chip that...
We use the concept of conditional mutual information (MI) to approach problems involving the selection of variables in the area of medical diagnosis. Computing MI requires estimate...
In the foreseeable future, software testing will remain one of the best tools we have at our disposal to ensure software dependability. Empirical studies are crucial to software t...
Experimental computer systems research typically ignores the end-user, modeling him, if at all, in overly simple ways. We argue that this (1) results in inadequate performance eva...
