One of the attractive features of Grid computing is that resources in geographically distant places can be mobilized to meet computational needs as they arise. A particularly chal...
The performance of irregular applications on modern computer systems is hurt by the wide gap between CPU and memory speeds because these applications typically underutilize multi-...

To execute a shared memory program efficiently, we have to manage memory consistency with low overheads, and have to utilize communication bandwidth of the platform as much as pos...
Time triggered methods provide deterministic behaviour suitable for critical real-time systems. They perform less favourably, however, if the arrival times of some activities are ...
The benefits of Out of Order (OOO) processing are well known, as is the effectiveness of predicated execution for unpredictable control flow. However, as previous research has dem...
