As parallel codes are scaled to larger computing systems, performance models play a crucial role in identifying potential bottlenecks. However, constructing these models analytically is often challenging. Empirical models based on…

We present a two-step decoder for the parity code and evaluate its performance in code-capacity and faulty-measurement settings. For noiseless measurements, we find that the decoding problem can be reduced to a series of repetition codes…

The $H_2$ norm is a commonly used performance metric in the design of estimators. However, $H_2$-optimal estimation of most PDEs is complicated by the lack of transfer function and state-space representations. To address this problem, we…
