Unlike their hard realtime counterparts, soft realtime applications are only expected to guarantee their ”expected delay” over input data space. This paradigm shift calls for ...
ACTION THE KEY TO COMPUTING? Why is it that some software engineers and computer scientists are able to produce clear, elegant designs and programs, while others cannot? Is it poss...
The caching behavior of multimedia applications has been described as having high instruction reference locality within small loops, very large working sets, and poor data cache p...
Recently, there has been an increased focus on modeling uncertainty by distributions. Suppose we wish to compute a function of a stream whose elements are samples drawn independen...
The allocation of scarce spectral resources to support as many user applications as possible while maintaining reasonable quality of service is a fundamental problem in wireless c...
