Recent I/O technologies such as PCI-Express and 10Gb Ethernet enable unprecedented levels of I/O bandwidths in mainstream platforms. However, in traditional architectures, memory ...
Abstract. Memory accesses contribute sunstantially to aggregate system delays. It is critical for designers to ensure that the memory subsystem is designed efficiently, and much wo...

We present a strategy to derive an efficient reference count garbage collector for any applicative program by only modifying it on the source code level. The key to the approach is...
Many embedded systems contain resource constrained microcontrollers where applications, operating system components and device drivers reside within a single address space with no...
