An application framework is a collection of classes implementing the shared architecture of a family of applications. It is shown how the specialization interface ("hot spots...
In time-parallel simulation, the simulation time axis is decomposed into a number of slices which are assigned to parallel processes for concurrent simulation. Although a promisin...
We review the basic principles of Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods, the randomizations that turn them into variancereduction techniques, and the main classes of constructions under...
