Statecharts are probably the most popular mechanism for behavior modeling of embedded system components. Modeling a component involves using a mainstream language for features tha...
higher, more appropriate, level of abstraction. It still entails writing programs, usually by using symbols, keywords, and operational instructions to tell the computer what we wan...
Efficient performance tuning of parallel programs is often hard. We present a performance prediction and visualization tool called VPPB. Based on a monitored uni-processor executi...
Parallel platforms are becoming ubiquitous with modern computing systems. Many parallel applications attempt to avoid locks in order to achieve high responsiveness, aid scalabilit...
Trace cache, an instruction fetch technique that reduces taken branch penalties by storing and fetching program instructions in dynamic execution order, dramatically improves inst...
