Current operating systems offer poor performance when a numeric application's working set does not fit in main memory. As a result, programmers who wish to solve "out-of...
The performance of many dynamic language implementations suffers from high allocation rates and runtime type checks. This makes dynamic languages less applicable to purely algorit...

Instruction combining is an optimization to replace a sequence of instructions with a more efficient instruction yielding the same result in a fewer machine cycles. When we use it...
Powerful branch predictors along with a large branch target buffer (BTB) are employed in superscalar processors for instruction-level parallelism exploitation. However, the large ...
The Cray X1 was recently introduced as the first in a new line of parallel systems to combine high-bandwidth vector processing with an MPP system architecture. Alongside capabili...
