Humans throughout history have always sought to mimic the appearance, mobility, functionality, intelligent operation, and thinking process of biological creatures. This field of b...
Recent research shows that the high occupancy of Coherence Controllers (CCs) is a major performance bottleneck in scalable shared-memory multiprocessors. In this paper, we propose...
Testing is often performed frequently during development to ensure software reliability by catching regression errors quickly. However, stopping frequently to test also wastes tim...
