Abstract—Resizable caches can trade-off capacity for access speed to dynamically match the needs of the workload. In Simultaneous Multi-Threaded (SMT) cores, the caching needs ca...
Power dissipation is a major concern not only for portable systems, but also for high-performance systems. In the past, energy consumption and processor heating was reduced mainly...
3G cellular data networks have recently witnessed explosive growth. In this work, we focus on UMTS, one of the most popular 3G mobile communication technologies. Our work is the f...
As computing models change, so too do the demands on storage. Distributed and virtualized systems introduce new vulnerabilities, assumptions, and performance requirements on disks...
