To support dynamic address translation in today's microprocessors, the first-level cache is accessed in parallel with a translation lookaside buffer (TLB). However, this curre...
Efficient management of last level caches (LLCs) plays an important role in bridging the performance gap between processor cores and main memory. This paper is motivated by two key...
Extreme technology integration in the sub-micron regime comes with a rapid rise in heat dissipation and power density for modern processors. Dynamic voltage scaling is a widely us...

Time Of Check To Time Of Use (TOCTTOU) race conditions for file accesses in user-space applications are a common problem in Unix-like systems. The mapping between filename and i...
DRAM is facing severe scalability challenges in sub-45nm technology nodes due to precise charge placement and sensing hurdles in deep-submicron geometries. Resistive memories, suc...
