Bootstrapping Parameter Space Exploration for Fast Tuning

The task of tuning parameters for optimizing performance or other metrics of interest such as energy, variability, etc. can be resource and time consuming. Presence of a large parameter space makes a comprehensive exploration infeasible. In this paper, we propose a novel bootstrap scheme, called GEIST, for parameter space exploration to find performance-optimizing configurations quickly. Our scheme represents the parameter space as a graph whose...
