Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
In recent years, we have seen a dramatic increase in the use of data-centric distributed systems such as global grid infrastructures, sensor networks, network monitoring, and vari...
An aggregate congestion control mechanism, namely ProbeAided MulTCP (PA-MulTCP), is proposed in this paper. It is based on MulTCP, a proposal for enabling an aggregate to emulate ...
This paper discusses the use of networks-on-chip (NoCs) consisting of multiple voltage-frequency islands to cope with power consumption, clock distribution and parameter variation...
