This paper introduces a new abstraction to accelerate the readbarriers and write-barriers used by language runtime systems. We exploit the fact that, dynamically, many barrier exe...
The recent design shift towards multicore processors has spawned a significant amount of research in the area of program parallelization. The future abundance of cores on a singl...

In this paper, an instruction-level energy model is proposed for the data-path of very long instruction word (VLIW) pipelined processors that can be used to provide accurate power ...
