The Surprising Effectiveness of Non-Overlapping, Sensitivity-Based Performance Models

John McCalpin

The presentation discusses a family of simple performance models that I developed over the last 20 years — originally in support of processor and system design at SGI (1996-1999), IBM (1999-2005), and AMD (2006-2008), but more recently in support of system procurements at The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) (2009-present).

What Adrian Did Next?—?Part 2?—?Sun Microsystems

Adrian Cockcroft

Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.

Building a Media Understanding Platform for ML Innovations

The Netflix TechBlog

Specifically, we will dive into the architecture that powers search capabilities for studio applications at Netflix. We build creator tooling to enable these colleagues to focus their time and energy on creativity. Unfortunately, much of their energy goes into labor-intensive pre-work. Artists and video editors must create them.

Data Mining Problems in Retail

Highly Scalable

Although these problems are very different, we are trying to establish a common framework that helps to design optimization and data mining tasks required for solutions. The design of the model heavily depends on the problem. This model helps to design targeted usage expansion campaigns. Propensity to category expansion.
