Finding a "Kneedle" in a Haystack: Detecting Knee Points in System Behavior
—Computer systems often reach a point at which the relative cost to increase some tunable parameter is no longer worth the corresponding performance benefit. These “knees” t...

Leveraging protocol knowledge in slack matching
Stalls, due to mis-matches in communication rates, are a major performance obstacle in pipelined circuits. If the rate of data production is faster than the rate of consumption, t...
