Patent citations reexamined

Kenneth Younge, Jeffrey Kuhn

Many studies rely on patent citations to measure intellectual heritage and impact. In this article, we show that the nature of patent citations has changed dramatically in recent years. Today, a small minority of patent applications are generating a large ...

Change Detection and Notification of Web Pages: A Survey

Lakmal Buddika Meegahapola

The majority of currently available webpages are dynamic in nature and are changing frequently. New content gets added to webpages, and existing content gets updated or deleted. Hence, people find it useful to be alert for changes in webpages that contain ...

The Distortion of Distributed Voting

Aris Filos Ratsikas

Voting can abstractly model any decision-making scenario and as such it has been extensively studied over the decades. Recently, the related literature has focused on quantifying the impact of utilizing only limited information in the voting process on the ...

Self-attention for Speech Emotion Recognition

Philip Neil Garner, Lorenzo Tarantino

Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) has been shown to benefit from many of the recent advances in deep learning, including recurrent based and attention based neural network architectures as well. Nevertheless, performance still falls short of that of humans. ...

Drowsy-DC: Data center power management system

Willy Zwaenepoel, Baptiste Joseph Eustache Lepers, Mathieu Paul Fernand Bacou

In a modern data center (DC), a large majority of costs arise from energy consumption. The most popular technique used to mitigate this issue is virtualization and more precisely virtual machine (VM) consolidation. Although consolidation may increase serve ...

Size-aware Sharding For Improving Tail Latencies in In-memory Key-value Stores

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona

This paper introduces the concept of size-aware sharding to improve tail latencies for in-memory key-value stores, and describes its implementation in the Minos key-value store. Size-aware sharding distributes requests for keys to cores according to the si ...

Structural Rewriting in XOR-Majority Graphs

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Zhufei Chu

In this paper, we present a structural rewriting method for a recently proposed XOR-Majority graph (XMG), which has exclusive-OR (XOR), majority-of-three (MAJ), and inverters as primitives. XMGs are an extension of Majority-Inverter Graphs (MIGs). Previous ...

Mapping Monotone Boolean Functions into Majority

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Luca Gaetano Amarù, Eleonora Testa, Winston Jason Haaswijk

We consider the problem of decomposing monotone Boolean functions into majority-of-three operations, with a particular focus on decomposing the majority-n function. When targeting monotone Boolean functions, Shannon's expansion can be expressed by a single ...

Pairs of majority-decomposing functions

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Eleonora Testa

We are interested in decompositions xnf1f2 of the majority function over n odd arguments x1, ...,xnsuch that f1and f2do not depend on xn. In this paper, we derive the conditions for f1and f2that satisfy the decomposition. Such decompositions play a centr ...
