276 Brunvand, Erik L.Editorial asynchronous architectureAsynchronous design is enjoying a worldwide resurgence of interest following several decades in obscurity. Many of the early computers employed asynchronous design techniques, but since the mid 1970s almost all digital design has been based around the use of a central clock. The clock simplifies mos...1996-01-01
277 Balasubramonian, RajeevThe effect of interconnect design on the performance of large L2 cachesThe ever increasing sizes of on-chip caches and the growing domination of wire delay have changed the traditional design approach of the memory hierarchy. Many recent proposals advocate splitting the cache into a large number of banks and employ an on-chip network to allow fast access to nearby ban...2006
278 Riloff, Ellen M.Effective information extraction with semantic affinity patterns and relevant regionsWe present an information extraction system that decouples the tasks of finding relevant regions of text and applying extraction patterns. We create a self-trained relevant sentence classifier to identify relevant regions, and use a semantic affinity measure to automatically learn domain-relevant ex...Information extraction; Semantic affinity patterns; Relevant regions; MUC-4 terrorism corpus; ProMed disease outbreak stories2007
279 Willemsen, Peter; Gooch, Amy A.; Thompson, William B.; Creem-Regehr, Sarah HopeEffects of stereo viewing conditions on distance perception in virtual environmentsSeveral studies from different research groups investigating perception of absolute, egocentric distances in virtual environments have reported a compression of the intended size of the virtual space. One potential explanation for the compression is that inaccuracies and cue confliicts involving ...Distance perception; Virtual environments; Stereo viewing conditions2005-02-15
280 Lindstrom, Gary E.Efficiency in nondeterministic control through non-forgetful backtrackingNondeterministic (ND) control has long been used to express elegant solutions to complex search problems.

Among the many approaches to the enumeration of these paths is backt...Nondeterministic control; Non-forgetful backtracking; Search problems1977
281 Hansen, Charles D.Efficient depth estimation using trinocular stereoWe present recent advancements in our passive trinocular stereo system. These include a technique for calibrating and rectifying in a very efficient and simple manner the triplets of images taken for trinocular stereovision systems.

282 Fujimoto, Richard M.Efficient instruction level simulation of computersA technique for creating efficient, yet highly accurate, instruction level simulation models of computers is described. In contrast to traditional approaches that use a software interpreter, this technique employs direct execution of application programs on the host computer. An assembly language pr...Simulation models1987
283 Regehr, JohnEfficient memory safety for TinyOSReliable sensor network software is difficult to create: applications are concurrent and distributed, hardware-based memory protection is unavailable, and severe resource constraints necessitate the use of unsafe, low-level languages. Our work improves this situation by providing efficient memory an...2007-01-01
284 Venkatasubramanian, SureshEfficient protocols for distributed classification and optimizationA recent paper [1] proposes a general model for distributed learning that bounds the communication required for learning classifiers with e error on linearly separable data adversarially distributed across nodes. In this work, we develop key improvements and extensions to this basic model. Our first...2012-01-01
285 Hansen, Charles D.Efficient rendering of atmospheric phenomenaRendering of atmospheric bodies involves modeling the complex interaction of light throughout the highly scattering medium of water and air particles. Scattering by these particles creates many well-known atmospheric optical phenomena including rainbows, halos, the corona, and the glory. Unfortunat...2004
286 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshEfficient search for inputs causing high floating-point errorsTools for floating-point error estimation are fundamental to program understanding and optimization. In this paper, we focus on tools for determining the input settings to a floating point routine that maximizes its result error.

287 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshEfficient symbolic simulation based verification using the parametric form of boolean expressions (rev.)We present several new techniques to make symbolic simulation based verification efficient. These techniques hinge on the use of the parametric form of a boolean expression (e.g. the parametric form for the boolean expression XQ V -<xi is the equivalent expression 3a b . (XQ = a V 6) A (xi = b), whe...Symbolic simulation; Verification1991
288 Regehr, JohnEfficient type and memory safety for tiny embedded systemsWe report our experience in implementing type and memory safety in an efficient manner for sensor network nodes running TinyOS: tiny embedded systems running legacy, C-like code. A compiler for a safe language must often insert dynamic checks into the programs it produces; these generally make progr...2006-01-01
289 Henderson, Thomas C.EGOR: design, development, implementation an entry in the 1994 AAAI robot competitionEGOR, an entry in the 1994 AAAI Robot Competition, was built by ate am from the Department of Computer Science at the University of Utah. The constraints imposed by the competition rules, and by cost and time, led to the development of a system composed of off-the- shelf parts based on a mobile bas...EGOR; AAAI Robot Competition1994
