This time, the main objective was to mentor and advise Tomoya Furukawa who had been studying with Dr Ines Dutra's group at Port0 since late August. He was studying the Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) from the basics to its application to the breast cancer image analysis.

IEEE Systems Journal

A paper titled "Power-Efficiency Study using SPECjEnterprise2010" has been accepted for publication at IEEE Systems Journal (publication date: TBD). The paper is co-authored by Hitoshi Oi and Sho Niboshi (former graduate student within our group) and is an extended version of the paper presented at the IEEE SYSCON 2013 .

The paper presents a case-study of the Java application server power-efficiency using SPECjEnterprise2010 as the workload with various options, including DFS parameter tuning, Simultaneous Multi-Threading and microarchitectural differences of the x86 ISA.
