Many operating systems allow user programs to specify the protectionlevel (inaccessible, read-only, read-write) of pages in their virtual memory address space, and to handle any p...
To support dynamic address translation in today's microprocessors, the first-level cache is accessed in parallel with a translation lookaside buffer (TLB). However, this curre...
Wireless networked embedded terminals like personal digital assistants, cell-phones or sensor nodes are typically memory constrained devices. This limitation prevents the developm...

Garbage collection yields numerous software engineering benefits, but its quantitative impact on performance remains elusive. One can compare the cost of conservative garbage col...
Existing virtual memory systems usually work well with applications written in C and C++, but they do not provide adequate support for garbage-collected applications. The performa...
