Weak correlations between visual abilities in healthy older adults, despite long-term performance stability

Using batteries of visual tests, most studies have found that there are only weak correlations between the performance levels of the tests. Factor analysis has confirmed these results. This means that a participant excelling in one test may rank low in ano ...

Learning a QoE Metric from Social Media and Gaming Footage

Aikaterini Argyraki, Catalina Paz Alvarez Inostroza

Defining a universal metric for Quality of Experience (QoE) is notoriously hard due to the complex relationship between low-level performance metrics and user satisfaction. The most common metric, the Mean Opinion Score (MOS), has well-known biases and inc ...

Dynamic power budget redistribution under a power cap on multi-application environments

Luis Maria Costero Valero

We present a two-level implementation of an infrastructure that allows performance maximization under a power-cap on multi-application environments with minimal user intervention. At the application level, we integrate BAR (Power Budget-Aware Runtime Sched ...

Bayes Security: A Not So Average Metric

Carmela González Troncoso, Giovanni Cherubin

Security system designers favor worst-case security metrics, such as those derived from differential privacy (DP), due to the strong guarantees they provide. On the downside, these guarantees result in a high penalty on the system's performance. In this pa ...

Cost-Based Decision Support System: A Dynamic Cost Estimation of Key Performance Indicators in Manufacturing

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Foivos Psarommatis Giannakopoulos

An attempt is made to translate five generic key performance indicators (KPIs) into a continuous real-time cost function in a batch order-based manufacturing environment. The challenge of controlling and optimizing resource utilization, production efficien ...

Performance Interfaces for Network Functions

George Candea, Aikaterini Argyraki, Rishabh Ramesh Iyer

Modern programmers routinely use third-party code, and infrastructure operators deploy software they did not write. This would not be possible without semantic interfaces---documentation, header files, specifications---that succinctly describe what that th ...

Decentralized in-order execution of a sequential task-based code for shared-memory architectures

Charly Nicolas Lucien Castes

The hardware complexity of modern machines makes the design of adequate programming models crucial for jointly ensuring performance, portability, and productivity in high-performance computing (HPC). Sequential task-based programming models paired with adv ...

Shrinking Bouma's window: How to model crowding in dense displays

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Alban Bornet, Adrien Christophe Doerig

In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. Traditionally, it is thought that visual crowding obeys Bouma's law, i.e., all elements within a certain distance interfere with the target, and that adding more elements ...

Office densification effects on comfort, energy, and carbon lifecycle performance: An integrated and exploratory study

Cédric Liardet, Laurent Liardet, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Endrit Hoxha

Generally, the environmental impacts of buildings are benchmarked per square meter as a functional unit. However, this practice prevents developing a user-centered approach in which performance is linked to real usage and not building size. Currently, the ...

Containergy-A Container-Based Energy and Performance Profiling Tool for Next Generation Workloads

David Atienza Alonso, Marina Zapater Sancho, Arman Iranfar, Wellington Silva De Souza

Run-time profiling of software applications is key to energy efficiency. Even the most optimized hardware combined to an optimally designed software may become inefficient if operated poorly. Moreover, the diversification of modern computing platforms and ...

Multidimensional Measures of Physical Activity and Their Association with Gross Motor Capacity in Children and Adolescents with Cerebral Palsy

Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff, Stéphane Armand

The current lack of adapted performance metrics leads clinicians to focus on what children with cerebral palsy (CP) do in a clinical setting, despite the ongoing debate on whether capacity (what they do at best) adequately reflects performance (what they d ...

Measurement-system design for structural identification

Numa Joy Bertola

In developed countries, the management of existing civil infrastructure is challenging due to evolving functional requirements, aging and climate change. Due to conservative approaches in construction design and practice, infrastructure often has hidden re ...
