Scheduler-Assisted Prefetching: Efficient Demand Paging for Embedded Systems
In an attempt to substitute NOR flash with NAND flash and provide more memory to applications, embedded systems have to use demand paging. However, demand paging drastically degra...

Isla Vista Heap Sizing: Using Feedback to Avoid Paging
Managed runtime environments (MREs) employ garbage collection (GC) for automatic memory management. However, GC induces pressure on the virtual memory (VM) manager, since it may t...

Path: page access tracking to improve memory management
Traditionally, operating systems use a coarse approximation of memory accesses to implement memory management algorithms by monitoring page faults or scanning page table entries. ...

Memory Forwarding: Enabling Aggressive Layout Optimizations by Guaranteeing the Safety of Data Relocation
By optimizing data layout at run-time, we can potentially enhance the performance of caches by actively creating spatial locality, facilitating prefetching, and avoiding cache con...
