Fairness is an essential requirement of any operating system scheduler. Unfortunately, existing fair scheduling algorithms are either inaccurate or inefficient and non-scalable fo...
Most microprocessor chips today use an out-of-order instruction execution mechanism. This mechanism allows superscalar processors to extract reasonably high levels of instruction ...
This work identifies practical compiling techniques for scalable shared memory machines. For this, we have focused on experimental studies using a real machine and representative ...
