A large and increasing gap exists between processor and memory speeds in scalable cache-coherent multiprocessors. To cope with this situation, programmers and compiler writers mus...
Asymmetric multicore processors (AMP) consist of cores exposing the same instruction-set architecture (ISA) but varying in size, frequency, power consumption and performance. AMPs...
In this paper, we propose a proactive dynamic thermal management scheme for chip multiprocessors that run multi-threaded workloads. We introduce a new predictor that utilizes the ...
Clusters of Symmetric MultiProcessing (SMP) nodes with multi-core Chip-Multiprocessors (CMP), also known as SMP-CMP clusters, are becoming ubiquitous today. For Message Passing int...
Fault-tolerant architectures based on physical replication of components are vulnerable to faults that cause the same effect in all replica. Short outages in a power supply shared...
