Cache hierarchies have been traditionally designed for usage by a single application, thread or core. As multi-threaded (MT) and multi-core (CMP) platform architectures emerge and...
The Cell processor is a heterogeneous multi-core processor with one Power Processing Engine (PPE) core and eight Synergistic Processing Engine (SPE) cores. Each SPE has a directly...

Peer to peer (P2P) systems are moving from application specific architectures to a generic service oriented design philosophy. This raises interesting problems in connection with...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems are slowly moving from application-specific architectures to a generic serviceoriented design framework. The idea is to allow a dynamic collection of P...
Since the advent of electronic computing, the processors’ clock speed has risen tremendously. Now that energy efficiency requirements have stopped that trend, the number of proc...
