Cumulative dominance and heuristic performance in binary multi-attribute choice
(2005-09-01)
Research report
Open AccessSeveral studies have reported high performance of simple decision heuristics in multi-attribute decision making. In this paper, we focus on situations where attributes are binary and analyze the performance of Determinis ... -
Process variability in sub-16nm bulk CMOS technology
(2012-03-01)
Research report
Open AccessThe document is part of deliverable D3.6 of the TRAMS Project (EU FP7 248789), of public nature, and shows and justifies the levels of variability used in the research project for sub-18nm bulk CMOS technologies. -
A failure-distance based method to bound the reliability of non-repairable Fault-tolerant systems without the knowledge of minimal cuts
(2000-12-11)
Research report
Open AccessCTMC (continuous-time Markov chains) are a commonly used formalism for modeling fault-tolerant systems. One of the major drawbacks of CTMC is the well-known state-space explosion problem. This work develops and analyzes ... -
Transient analysis of large Markov models with absorbing states using regenerative randomization
(2005-04-30)
Research report
Open AccessIn this paper, we develop a new method, called regenerative randomization, for the transient analysis of continuous time Markov models with absorbing states. The method has the same good properties as standard randomization: ... -
A generalized method for the transient analysis of Markov models of fault-tolerant systems with deferred repair
(2009-09-15)
Research report
Open AccessRandomization is an attractive alternative for the transient analysis of continuous time Markov models. The main advantages of the method are numerical stability, well-controlled computation error and ability to specify ... -
An efficient and numerically stable method for computing interval availability distribution bounds
(2009-09-15)
Research report
Open AccessThe paper develops a method, called bounding regenerative transformation, for the computation with numerical stability and well-controlled error of bounds for the interval availability distribution of systems modeled by ... -
Simulation of steady-state availability models of fault-tolerant systems with deferred repair
(2006-01-19)
Research report
Open AccessThis paper targets the simulation of continuous-time Markov chain models of fault-tolerant systems with deferred repair. We start by stating sufficient conditions for a given importance sampling scheme to satisfy the bounded ... -
Energy macro-model for on chip interconnection buses
(2006-06)
Research report
Open AccessThis report presents a fast method of evaluating the power consumption of a bus. Given an on-chip bus driver-interconnection-receiver design of N parallel lines,the objective is to develop its energy consumption macro-model. ...
