Data prefetching effectively reduces the negative effects of long load latencies on the performance of modern processors. Hardware prefetchers employ hardware structures to predic...

This paper presents an energy-conservation method for multiple disks and their cache memory. Our method periodically resizes the cache memory and controls the rotation speeds unde...
In order to become an effective complement to traditional Web-scale text-based image retrieval solutions, content-based image retrieval must address scalability and efficiency iss...
In this paper, we propose and study a new technique, which we call cache-based compaction for reducing the latency of Web browsing over a slow link. Our compaction technique trades...
An object database management system (OODBMS) has been often criticized for its alleged insufficient scalability for a large-scale production system. We investigated the scalabili...
