Ingebretsen, Robert Bergstrom | Log spectral estimation for stationary and nonstationary processes | This research is concerned with two log spectral estimators in the context of both stationary and nonstationary signals. They differ because in one smoothing is realized before the logarithmic transformation, while the other is smoothed in the logarithimc domain. It is shown that for stationary sign... | Log spectral estimation; Nonstationary processes; Log spectral estimators | 1975 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Logical sensor systems | Multi-sensor systems require a coherent and efficient treatment of the information provided by the various sensors. We propose a framework the Logical Sensor Specification System, in which the sensors can be abstractly defined in terms of computational processes operating on the output from other se... | Logical sensor systems; Multi-sensor systems; Multisensor systems; Logical Sensor Specification System | 1984 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Looking under the hood: tools for diagnosing your question answering engine | In this paper we analyze two question answering tasks : the TREC-8 question answering task and a set of reading comprehension exams. First, we show that Q/A systems perform better when there are multiple answer opportunities per question. Next, we analyze common approaches to two subproblems: ter... | TREC-8; Performance | 2001 |

Balasubramonian, Rajeev | LOT-ECC: LOcalized and tiered reliability mechanisms for commodity memory systems | Memory system reliability is a serious and growing concern in modern servers. Existing chipkill-level mem- ory protection mechanisms suffer from several draw- backs. They activate a large number of chips on ev- ery memory access - this increases energy consump- tion, and reduces performance due to t... | | 2012-01-01 |

Brunvand, Erik L. | Low latency self-timed flow-through FIFOs | Self-timed flow-through FIFOs are constructed easily using only a single C-element as control for each stage of the FIFO. Throughput can be very high in this type of FIFO as the communication required to send new data to the FIFO is local to only the first element of the FIFO. Circuit density can ... | | 1995 |

Stoller, Leigh B. | Low latency workstation cluster communications using sender-based protocols | The use of workstations on a local area network to form scalable multicomputers has become quite common. A serious performance bottleneck in such "carpet clusters" is the communication protocol that is used to send data between nodes. We report on the design and implementation of a class of communic... | Workstations; Scalable multicomputers; Sender-based; Communication protocols | 1996 |

Tinker, Peter | Managing large address spaces effectively on the Butterfly | The BBN Butterfly? Parallel Processor is a commercially-available multiprocessor which uses a memory management strategy based on a segmentation of the available memory. Using all of the memory of the machine efficiently is difficult because of the need to change the memory mapping dynamically. This... | BBN Butterfly Parallel Processor; Large address spaces | 1987 |

Freire, Juliana; Silva, Claudio T. | Managing the evolution of dataflows with VisTrails | Scientists are now faced with an incredible volume of data to analyze. To successfully analyze and validate various hypotheses, it is necessary to pose several queries, correlate disparate data, and create insightful visualizations of both the simulated processes and observed phenomena.

Johnson, Christopher R. | Map3d: scientific visualization program for multichannel time series data on unstructured, three-dimensional meshes. program user's guide | There are many examples in biomedical research of recording time signals with multi-sensor arrays whose elements are arranged in irregular, three-dimensional grids [1, 2, 3, 4]. If the nodes in such arrays can be connected into "surfaces", it is possible to employ linear interpolation techniques to ... | Map3D; Multi-sensor arrays; Scientific visualization; Multichannel time series data; Three-dimensional meshes | 1994 |

Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | MAPPED: Predictive dynamic analysis tool for MPI applications | Abstract-Formal dynamic analysis of MPI programs is critically important since conventional testing tools for message passing programs do not cover the space of possible non-deterministic communication matches, thus may miss bugs in the unexamined execution scenarios. While modern dynamic verificati... | | 2012-01-01 |

Pascucci, Valerio | Mapping applications with collectives over sub-communicators on torus networks | The placement of tasks in a parallel application on specific nodes of a supercomputer can significantly impact performance. Traditionally, this task mapping has focused on reducing the distance between communicating tasks on the physical network. This minimizes the number of hops that point-to-point... | | 2012-01-01 |

Joshi, Sarang; Venkatasubramanian, Suresh | Matching shapes using the current distance | Current Distance: It was introduced by Vaillant and Glaunès as a way of comparing shapes (point sets, curves, surfaces). This distance measure is defined by viewing a shape as a linear operator on a k-form field, and constructing a (dual) norm on the space of shapes. Shape Matching: Given two s... | | |

Parker, Steven G. | Memory sharing for interactive ray tracing on clusters | We present recent results in the application of distributed shared memory to image parallel ray tracing on clusters.
