A Compositional Approach to Performance Modelling

by Jane Hillston , 1996
"... Performance modelling is concerned with the capture and analysis of the dynamic behaviour of computer and communication systems. The size and complexity of many modern systems result in large, complex models. A compositional approach decomposes the system into subsystems that are smaller and more ea ..."

A Case for End System Multicast

by Yang-hua Chu, Sanjay G. Rao, Srinivasan Seshan, Hui Zhang - in Proceedings of ACM Sigmetrics , 2000
"... Abstract — The conventional wisdom has been that IP is the natural protocol layer for implementing multicast related functionality. However, more than a decade after its initial proposal, IP Multicast is still plagued with concerns pertaining to scalability, network management, deployment and suppor ..."

of multicast support from routers to end systems has the potential to address most problems associated with IP Multicast. However, the key concern is the performance penalty associated with such a model. In particular, End System Multicast introduces duplicate packets on physical links and incurs larger end

Cost-Aware WWW Proxy Caching Algorithms

by Pei Cao, Sandy Irani - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1997 USENIX SYMPOSIUM ON INTERNET TECHNOLOGY AND SYSTEMS , 1997
"... Web caches can not only reduce network traffic and downloading latency, but can also affect the distribution of web traffic over the network through costaware caching. This paper introduces GreedyDualSize, which incorporates locality with cost and size concerns in a simple and non-parameterized fash ..."

Economic analysis of social interactions

by Charles F. Manski - JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVES , 2000
"... Economists have long been ambivalent about whether the discipline should focus on the analysis of markets or should be concerned with social interactions more generally. Recently the discipline has sought to broaden its scope while maintaining the rigor of modern economic analysis. Major theoretical ..."

The Varieties of Reference

by Jeff Evans , 1982
"... Tracing the development of concepts of affect and emotion in mathematics education (ME) research is informative for research on teaching statistics. In both areas, early research focused on more stable aspects of affect- beliefs, values and attitudes- using surveys to study dimensionality, and corre ..."

, and correlations with performance. In ME, a concern with gender differences led to focusing on “mathematics anxiety ” so as to provide a non-cognitive explanation for any gender differences in performance. McLeod (1992) proposed a spectrum of forms of affect, from beliefs (more stable, “cooler”) over to emotions

FFTW: An Adaptive Software Architecture For The FFT

by Matteo Frigo, Steven G. Johnson , 1998
"... FFT literature has been mostly concerned with minimizing the number of floating-point operations performed by an algorithm. Unfortunately, on present-day microprocessors this measure is far less important than it used to be, and interactions with the processor pipeline and the memory hierarchy have ..."

Modeling Strategic Relationships for Process Reengineering

by Eric Siu-kwong Yu , 1995
"... Existing models for describing a process (such as a business process or a software development process) tend to focus on the \what " or the \how " of the process. For example, a health insurance claim process would typically be described in terms of a number of steps for assessing and appr ..."

in terms of intentional dependency relationships among agents. Agents depend on each other for goals to be achieved, tasks to be performed, and resources to be furnished. Agents are intentional in that they have desires and wants, and strategic in that they are concerned about opportunities

Active Messages: a Mechanism for Integrated Communication and Computation

by Thorsten Von Eicken, David E. Culler, Seth Copen Goldstein, Klaus Erik Schauser , 1992
"... The design challenge for large-scale multiprocessors is (1) to minimize communication overhead, (2) allow communication to overlap computation, and (3) coordinate the two without sacrificing processor cost/performance. We show that existing message passing multiprocessors have unnecessarily high com ..."

The theory of planned behavior

by Icek Ajzen - Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes , 1991
"... Research dealing with various aspects of * the theory of planned behavior (Ajzen, 1985, 1987) is reviewed, and some unresolved issues are discussed. In broad terms, the theory is found to be well supported by empirical evidence. Intentions to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted wit ..."
