    • Cache Calculus: Modeling Caches through Differential Equations 

      Beckmann, Nathan; Sanchez, Daniel (2015-12-19)
      Caches are critical to performance, yet their behavior is hard to understand and model. In particular, prior work does not provide closed-form solutions of cache performance, i.e. simple expressions for the miss rate of a ...

    • Representation Discovery for Kernel-Based Reinforcement Learning 

      Zewdie, Dawit H.; Konidaris, George (2015-11-24)
      Recent years have seen increased interest in non-parametric reinforcement learning. There are now practical kernel-based algorithms for approximating value functions; however, kernel regression requires that the underlying ...

    • Dynamic Prefetching of Data Tiles for Interactive Visualization 

      Battle, Leilani; Chang, Remco; Stonebraker, Michael (2015-10-19)
      In this paper, we present ForeCache, a general-purpose tool for exploratory browsing of large datasets. ForeCache utilizes a client-server architecture, where the user interacts with a lightweight client-side interface to ...
