The memory overhead introduced by directories constitutes a major hurdle in the scalability of cc-NUMA architectures, which makes the shared-memory paradigm unfeasible for very la...
We consider the problem of task reweighting in fair-scheduled multiprocessor systems wherein each task’s processor share is specified as a weight. When a task is reweighted, a ...
Recent research on processor microarchitecture suggests using instruction criticality as a metric to guide hardware control policies. Fields et al. [3, 4] have proposed a directed...
With the increasing popularity of small to large-scale symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) systems, there has been a dire need to have sophisticated, and flexible development and runt...
We present a system-level design and programming method for embedded multiprocessor systems. The aim of the method is to improve the design time and design quality by providing a ...
