In the last years high performance processor designs have evolved toward Chip-Multiprocessor (CMP) architectures that implement multiple processing cores on a single die. As the nu...
Multiple issue of instructions occurs in superscalar and VLIW machines. This paper investigates a third type of machine design, which combines the advantages of code compatibility...
—User-level communication allows an application process to access the network interface directly. Bypassing the kernel requires that a user process accesses the network interface...
This paper describes a fast, automated technique for accurate on-line estimation of the performance and power consumption of interacting processes in a multi-programmed, multi-cor...
