    • Applied inference 

      Lee, Benjamin C.; Brooks, David M. (Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2010)
      We propose and apply a new simulation paradigm for microarchitectural design evaluation and optimization. This paradigm enables more comprehensive design studies by combining spatial sampling and statistical inference. ...

    • Episodic Chasing in Pathological Gamblers Using the Iowa Gambling Task 

      Linnet, Jakob; Rojskjaer, Steffen; Nygaard, Jorgen; Maher, Brendan Arnold (Blackwell Publishing, 2006)
      "Chasing ones losses" is a key symptom among pathological gamblers (PGs). This study focuses on quantitative differences in episodic chasing (i.e., sequences of disadvantageous decisions within a single gambling session) ...

    • Evaluation of the Brief Problem Checklist: Child and caregiver interviews to measure clinical progress. 

      Chorpita, Bruce F.; Reise, Steven; Weisz, John R; Grubbs, Kathleen; Becker, Kimberly D.; Krull, Jennifer L. (American Psychological Association (APA), 2010)
      Objective: To support ongoing monitoring of child response during treatment, we sought to develop a brief, easily administered, clinically relevant, and psychometrically sound measure. Method: We first developed child and ...

    • Performance Introspection of Graph Databases 

      Macko, Peter; Margo, Daniel Wyatt; Seltzer, Margo I. (Association for Computing Machinery, 2013)
      The explosion of graph data in social and biological networks, recommendation systems, provenance databases, etc. makes graph storage and processing of paramount importance. We present a performance introspection framework ...

    • Time-Dependent Density-Functional Theory in Massively Parallel Computer Architectures: The Octopus Project 

      Andrade, Xavier; Alberdi-Rodriguez, Joseba; Strubbe, David A.; Oliveira, Micael J. T.; Nogueira, Fernando; Castro, Alberto; Muguerza, Javier; Arruabarrena, Agustin; Louie, Steven G.; Aspuru-Guzik, Alan; Rubio, Angel; Marques, Miguel A. L. (Institute of Physics, 2012)
      Octopus is a general-purpose density-functional theory (DFT) code, with a particular emphasis on the time-dependent version of DFT (TDDFT). In this paper we present the ongoing efforts to achieve the parallelization of ...

    • Two Foraging Algorithms for Robot Swarms Using Only Local Communication 

      Hoff, Nicholas R. III; Sagoff, Amelia; Wood, Robert J.; Nagpal, Radhika (IEEE, 2010)
      Large collections of robots have the potential to perform tasks collectively using distributed control algorithms. These algorithms require communication between robots to allow the robots to coordinate their behavior and ...
