In distributed object systems, remote method inattempts to abstract communication between di erent machines to the level of object method invocation. Link failure in such systems ...
We present a new lockset-based algorithm, Goldilocks, for precisely computing the happens-before relation and thereby detecting data-races at runtime. Dynamic race detection algori...
Within two or three technology generations, processor architects will face a number of major challenges. Wire delays will become critical, and power considerations will temper the ...
Modern transactional response-time sensitive applications have run into practical limits on the size of garbage collected heaps. The heap can only grow until GC pauses exceed the ...
