Class Papers
- For ECE575 - High Performance Computer Architecture -
"Value Prediction of Byte-sized Data" - May 2004.
Results showed that predicting 8-bit sized values is not any easier than
using equivalent sized hardware to predict 32-bit sized values.
- For COMS 612 - Software Design for High Performance Architectures -
"Learning Models in Self-Optimizing Systems" - May 2006.
Investigated using Genetic Algorithms to search ATLAS matrix-matrix multiplication
search space. Preliminary results showed large potential increase in performance.
