276 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshDynamic reordering of high latency transactions in time-warp simulation using a modified micropipelineTime warp based simulation of discrete-event systems is an efficient way to overcome the synchronization overhead during distributed simulation. As computations may proceed beyond synchronization barriers in time warp, multiple checkpoints of state need to be maintained to be able to rollback inva...Asynchronous design; Micropipelines; Dynamic instruction reordering; Time warp simulations1992
277 Bargteil, Adam WadeDynamic spritesTraditional methods for creating dynamic objects and characters from static drawings involve careful tweaking of animation curves and/or simulation parameters.

279 Balasubramonian, RajeevDynamically allocating processor resources between nearby and distant ILPModern superscalar processors use wide instruction issue widths and out-of-order execution in order to increase instruction-level parallelism (ILP). Because instructions must be committed in order so as to guarantee precise exceptions, increasing ILP implies increasing the sizes of structures s...Instruction-level parallelism; Microarchitecture; Primary thread; Future thread; Instruction reuse buffer2001
280 Balasubramonian, RajeevDynamically managing the communication-parallelism trade-off in future clustered processorsClustered microarchitectures are an attractive alternative to large monolithic superscalar designs due to their potential for higher clock rates in the face of increasingly wire-delay-constrained process technologies. As increasing transistor counts allow an increase in the number of clusters, th...Clustered architectures; Microarchitecture; Decentralized cache; Interconnects2003
281 Balasubramonian, RajeevDynamically tunable memory hierarchyThe widespread use of repeaters in long wires creates the possibility of dynamically sizing regular on-chip structures. We present a tunable cache and translation lookaside buffer (TLB) hierarchy that leverages repeater insertion to dynamically trade off size for speed and power consumption on a per...Microarchitecture; High performance microprocessors; Reconfigurable architectures; Energy and performance of on-chip caches; Translation lookaside buffer (TLB); Tunable cache2003-10

283 Regehr, JohnEdicts: implementing features with flexible binding timesIn a software product line, the binding time of a feature is the time at which one decides to include or exclude a feature from a product. Typical binding site implementations are intended to support a single binding time only, e.g., compile time or run time. Sometimes, however, a product line must...2008-01-01
284 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
285 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
286 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
287 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
288 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. Programs using ND control can be executed on conventional machines through a systematic examination of trial execution paths. Among the many approaches to the enumeration of these paths is backt...Nondeterministic control; Non-forgetful backtracking; Search problems1977
