Automating Compiler Optimization: A Machine Learning Approach
Abstract: This study reports on an ML-based approach to compiler optimization, complementing traditional optimization methods that rely strongly on hand-tuned settings. Compiler optimization plays a key role in performance-speedup and energy optimization of complex contemporary software systems. However, the traditional approach to optimizer settings involves laborious, error-prone, and scale-insensitive human-in-the-loop intervention, especially in the complex and high-demand environments in which today's computing application thrives. By integrating RL and GA, we can …

Comparative Study of Structural and Optical Properties of Bismuth Ferrite Nanoparticles for Photovoltaic Applications Synthesized via Different Sol-Gel Methods
Abstract: Pure multiferroic bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using an energy-efficient, low-temperature sol-gel method, comparing two distinct approaches: auto-combustion and non-auto-combustion. To ensure phase stability, the precursor solution's pH was strictly maintained between 1 and 2 using ammonia solution (NH4OH), while ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) was employed as a chelating agent for the Fe3+ and Bi3+ cations. All samples underwent a final annealing process at 500 °C to promote crystallization. …
