Software pipelining: An effective scheduling technique for VLIW machines

by Monica Lam , 1988
"... This paper shows that software pipelining is an effective and viable scheduling technique for VLIW processors. In software pipelining, iterations of a loop in the source program are continuously initiated at constant intervals, before the preceding iterations complete. The advantage of software pipe ..."

hierarchical reduction scheme whereby entire control con-structs are reduced to an object similar to an operation in a basic block. With this scheme, all innermost loops, including those containing conditional statements, can be software pipelined. It also diminishes the start-up cost of loops with small

An online recruitment system for economic experiments

by Ben Greiner - IN , 2004
"... In this paper we introduce the Online Recruitment System for Economic Experiments (ORSEE). With this software experimenters have a free, convenient and very powerful tool to organize their experiments and sessions in a standardized way. Additionally, ORSEE provides subject pool statistics, a laborat ..."

Z-tree: Zürich Toolbox for Ready-Made Economic Experiments,

by Urs Fischbacher - Experimental Economics , 2007
"... Abstract z-Tree (Zurich Toolbox for Ready-made Economic Experiments) is a software for developing and conducting economic experiments. The software is stable and allows programming almost any kind of experiments in a short time. In this article, I present the guiding principles behind the software ..."

Equation-based congestion control for unicast applications

by Sally Floyd , Mark Handley , Jitendra Padhye , Jörg Widmer - SIGCOMM '00 , 2000
"... This paper proposes a mechanism for equation-based congestion control for unicast traffic. Most best-effort traffic in the current Internet is well-served by the dominant transport protocol, TCP. However, traffic such as best-effort unicast streaming multimedia could find use for a TCP-friendly cong ..."

single round-trip time. We use both simulations and experiments over the Internet to explore performance. We consider equation-based congestion control a promising avenue of development for congestion control of multicast traffic, and so an additional motivation for this work is to lay a sound basis

Topology Control of Multihop Wireless Networks using Transmit Power Adjustment

by Ram Ramanathan , Regina Rosales-hain , 2000
"... We consider the problem of adjusting the transmit powers of nodes in a multihop wireless network (also called an ad hoc network) to create a desired topology. We formulate it as a constrained optimization problem with two constraints- connectivity and biconnectivity, and one optimization objective- ..."

minimum power. We analyze the throughput, delay, and power consumption of our algorithms using a prototype software implementation, an emulation of a power-controllable radio, and a detailed channel model. Our results show that the performance of multihop wireless networks in practice can be substantially

Proposed NIST Standard for Role-Based Access Control

by David F. Ferraiolo, Ravi Sandhu, Serban Gavrila, D. Richard Kuhn, Ramaswamy Chandramouli , 2001
"... In this article we propose a standard for role-based access control (RBAC). Although RBAC models have received broad support as a generalized approach to access control, and are well recognized for their many advantages in performing large-scale authorization management, no single authoritative def ..."

A Meta-Analytic Review of Experiments Examining the Effects of Extrinsic Rewards on Intrinsic Motivation

by Edward L. Deci, Richard Koestner, Richard M. Ryan
"... A meta-analysis of 128 studies examined the effects of extrinsic rewards on intrinsic motivation. As predicted, engagement-contingent, completion-contingent, and performance-contingent rewards signifi-cantly undermined free-choice intrinsic motivation (d =-0.40,-0.36, and-0.28, respectively), as did ..."

this study's methods, analyses, and results differed from the previous ones. By 1971, hundreds of studies within the operant tradition (Skin-ner, 1953) had established that extrinsic rewards can control be-havior. When administered closely subsequent to a behavior, re-wards were reliably found

Controlled and automatic human information processing: II. Perceptual learning, automatic attending and a general theory

by Richard M. Shiffrin, Walter Schneider - Psychological Review , 1977
"... The two-process theory of detection, search, and attention presented by Schneider and Shiffrin is tested and extended in a series of experiments. The studies demonstrate the qualitative difference between two modes of information processing: automatic detection and controlled search. They trace the ..."

Myrinet: A Gigabit-per-Second Local Area Network

by Nanette J. Boden, Danny Cohen, Robert E. Felderman, Alan E. Kulawik, Charles L. Seitz, Jakov N. Seizovic, Wen-king Su - IEEE Micro , 1995
"... Abstract. Myrinet is a new type of local-area network (LAN) based on the technology used for packet communication and switching within "massivelyparallel processors " (MPPs). Think of Myrinet as an MPP message-passing network that can span campus dimensions, rather than as a wide-a ..."

-area telecommunications network that is operating in close quarters. The technical steps toward making Myrinet a reality included the development of (1) robust, 25m communication channels with flow control, packet framing, and error control; (2) self-initializing, low-latency, cut-through switches; (3) host interfaces

Design and Evaluation of a Compiler Algorithm for Prefetching
