Asynchronous method calls have been proposed to better integrate object orientation with distribution. In the Creol language, asynchronous method calls are combined with so-called...
This paper describes dynamic pressure-aware associative placement (DPAP), a novel distributed cache management scheme for large-scale chip multiprocessors. Our work is motivated by...
Cache memories were invented to decouple fast processors from slow memories. However, this decoupling is only partial, and many researchers have attempted to improve cache use by p...
Despite their superior performance for multimedia applications, vector processors have three limitations that hinder their widespread acceptance. First, the complexity and size of...
In safety-critical systems, certain safety constraints must be satisfied before an operation can be performed. Such constraints typically depend on the state of the system at the ...
