SARC merges cache controller and network interface functions by relying on a single hardware primitive: each access checks the tag and the state of the addressed line for possible...
Various studies have shown that OS jitter can degrade parallel program performance considerably at large processor counts. Most sources of system jitter fall broadly into 5 catego...
Next-generation high-end Network Processors (NP) must address demands from both diversified applications and ever-increasing traffic pressure. One major challenge is to design an e...
