Trace Scheduling: A Technique for Global Microcode Compaction
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTERS
, 1981
"... Microcode compaction is the conversion of sequential microcode into efficient parallel (horizontal) microcode. Local com-paction techniques are those whose domain is basic blocks of code, while global methods attack code with a general flow control. Compilation of high-level microcode languages int ..."

into efficient horizontal microcode and good hand coding probably both require effective global compaction techniques. In this paper "trace scheduling" is developed as a solution to the global compaction problem. Trace scheduling works on traces (or paths) through microprograms. Compacting is thus done
Climate and atmospheric history of the past 420,000 years from the Vostok ice core,
- Antarctica. Nature
, 1999
"... Antarctica has allowed the extension of the ice record of atmospheric composition and climate to the past four glacial-interglacial cycles. The succession of changes through each climate cycle and termination was similar, and atmospheric and climate properties oscillated between stable bounds. Inte ..."

temperature and precipitation rate, moisture source conditions, wind strength and aerosol fluxes of marine, volcanic, terrestrial, cosmogenic and anthropogenic origin. They are also unique with their entrapped air inclusions in providing direct records of past changes in atmospheric trace-gas composition
The two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution derived from a stable subordinator.
, 1995
"... The two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution, denoted pd(ff; `), is a distribution on the set of decreasing positive sequences with sum 1. The usual Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with a single parameter `, introduced by Kingman, is pd(0; `). Known properties of pd(0; `), including the Markov ..."

of Brownian motion and Bessel processes. For 0 ! ff ! 1, pd(ff; 0) is the asymptotic distribution of ranked lengths of excursions of a Markov chain away from a state whose recurrence time distribution is in the domain of attraction of a stable law of index ff. Formulae in this case trace back to work
Code-Red: a case study on the spread and victims of an Internet worm
, 2002
"... On July 19, 2001, more than 359,000 computers connected to the Internet were infected with the CodeRed (CRv2) worm in less than 14 hours. The cost of this epidemic, including subsequent strains of Code-Red, is estimated to be in excess of $2.6 billion. Despite the global damage caused by this attack ..."

Topologically-aware overlay construction and server selection
, 2002
"... A number of large-scale distributed Internet applications could potentially benefit from some level of knowledge about the relative proximity between its participating host nodes. For example, the performance of large overlay networks could be improved if the application-level connectivity between ..."

partition themselves into bins such that nodes that fall within a given bin are relatively close to one another in terms of network latency. Our binning strategy is simple (requiring minimal support from any measurement infrastructure), scalable (requiring no form of global knowledge, each node only needs
The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME): Mission Concept and First Scientific Results
, 1999
"... . The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) is a new instrument aboard ESA's 2nd European Remote Sensing Satellite (ERS2) , which was launched in April 1995. The main scientific objective of the GOME mission is to determine the global distribution of ozone and several other trace gases, whi ..."

Some properties of Noether charge and a proposal for dynamical black hole entropy
- Phys. Rev
, 1994
"... We consider a general, classical theory of gravity with arbitrary matter fields in n dimensions, arising from a diffeomorphism invariant Lagrangian, L. We first show that L always can be written in a “manifestly covariant ” form. We then show that the symplectic potential current (n − 1)-form, Θ, an ..."

, and the symplectic current (n − 1)-form, ω, for the theory always can be globally defined in a covariant manner. Associated with any infinitesimal diffeomorphism is a Noether current (n − 1)-form, J, and corresponding Noether charge (n − 2)-form, Q. We derive a general “decomposition formula ” for Q. Using
Global Illumination using Photon Maps

It represents a significant improvement of a previously described approach both with respect to speed, accuracy and versatility. In the first pass two photon maps are created by emitting packets of energy ..."
