Data compression has been claimed to be an attractive solution to save energy consumption in high-end servers and data centers. However, there has not been a study to explore this...
This paper compares several implementations of entry consistency (EC) and lazy release consistency (LRC), two relaxed memory models in use with software distributed shared memory ...

Large–scale parallel applications performing global synchronization may spend a significant amount of execution time waiting for the completion of a barrier operation. Conseque...
In this paper, we identify transaction-local memory as a major source of overhead from compiler instrumentation in software transactional memory (STM). Transaction-local memory is...
