Dual-core processors (and, to an extent, multicore processors) have been adopted in recent years to provide platforms that satisfy the performance requirements of popular multimed...
The design and evaluation of microprocessor architectures is a difficult and time-consuming task. Although small, handcoded microbenchmarks can be used to accelerate performance e...
Wireless IEEE 802.11 networks are typically deployed as a convenient and flexible way to access wired backbones. However, due to the inherently shared nature and physical propert...
This paper presents the design of user-level scheduling hierarchies in the Composite component-based system. The motivation for this is centered around the design of a system that...
The rapid revolution in microprocessor chip architecture due to multicore technology is presenting unprecedented challenges to the application developers as well as system softwar...
