Minimizing conflicts: a heuristic repair method for constraint satisfaction and scheduling problems
- ARTIF. INTELL
, 1992
"... This paper describes a simple heuristic approach to solving large-scale constraint satisfaction and scheduling problems. In this approach one starts with an inconsistent assignment for a set of variables and searches through the space of possible repairs. The search can be guided by a value-orderin ..."

Inferring variable conflicts for local search
- In Frédéric Benhamou, editor, Proceedings of CP’06, volume 4204 of LNCS
, 2006
"... For efficiency reasons, neighbourhoods in local search algorithms are often shrunk by only considering moves modifying variables that actually contribute to the overall penalty. These are known as conflicting variables. This is a well-known technique for speeding up search. State-of-the-art solution ..."

Economic Shocks and Civil Conflict: An Instrumental Variables Approach
- Journal of Political Economy
, 2004
"... Estimating the impact of economic conditions on the likelihood of civil conflict is difficult because of endogeneity and omitted variable bias. We use rainfall variation as an instrumental variable for economic growth in 41 African countries during 1981–99. Growth is strongly negatively related to c ..."

Selecting the Right Interestingness Measure for Association Patterns
, 2002
"... Many techniques for association rule mining and feature selection require a suitable metric to capture the dependencies among variables in a data set. For example, metrics such as support, confidence, lift, correlation, and collective strength are often used to determine the interestinghess of assoc ..."

Data Transformations for Eliminating Conflict Misses
- In Proceedings of the SIGPLAN '98 Conference on Programming Language Design and Implementation
, 1998
"... Many cache misses in scientific programs are due to conflicts caused by limited set associativity. We examine two compile-time data-layout transformations for eliminating conflict misses, concentrating on misses occuring on every loop iteration. Inter-variable padding adjusts variable base addresses ..."

The Bayou Architecture: Support for Data Sharing among Mobile Users
, 1994
"... The Bayou System is a platform of replicated, highly-available, variable-consistency, mobile databases on which to build collaborative applications. This paper presents the preliminary system architecture along with the design goals that influenced it. We take a fresh, bottom-up and critical look at ..."

Prejudice and politics: Symbolic racism versus racial threats to the good life.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1981
"... Although theories of prejudice have been extensively catalogued, empirical confrontations between competing theories are surprisingly rare. The primary goal of the present research was to test two major theoretical approaches to prejudice by whites against blacks: realistic group conflict theory, w ..."

Global Register Allocation at Link Time
- Fast Printed Circuit Board Routing.’’ WRL Research Report 86/3
, 1986
"... In previous work in global register allocation, the compiler colors a conflict graph constructed from liveness dataflow information, in order to allocate the same register to many variables that are not simultane-ously live. If two procedures are in separately com-piled modules, however, the compile ..."

Logistic Regression in Rare Events Data
, 1999
"... We study rare events data, binary dependent variables with dozens to thousands of times fewer ones (events, such as wars, vetoes, cases of political activism, or epidemiological infections) than zeros (“nonevents”). In many literatures, these variables have proven difficult to explain and predict, a ..."

, explanatory variables, such as in international conflict data with more than a quarter-million dyads, only a few of which are at war. As it turns out, more efficient sampling designs exist for making valid inferences, such as sampling all available events (e.g., wars) and a tiny fraction of nonevents (peace
Cache-Conscious Data Placement
- in Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems

Compiler techniques have been used to improve instruction cache performance by mapping code with temporal locality to different cache blocks in the vir ..."

In this paper we present a general framework for Cache Conscious Data Placement. This is a compiler directed approach that creates
