Calvin: Deterministic or not? Free will to choose
Most shared memory systems maximize performance by unpredictably resolving memory races. Unpredictable memory races can lead to nondeterminism in parallel programs, which can suff...

Selective, accurate, and timely self-invalidation using last-touch prediction
Communication in cache-coherent distributed shared memory (DSM) often requires invalidating (or writing back) cached copies of a memory block, incurring high overheads. This paper...

The Impact of Data Transfer and Buffering Alternatives on Network Interface Design
The explosive growth in the performance of microprocessors and networks has created a new opportunity to reduce the latency of fine-grain communication. Microprocessor clock speed...

Hera-JVM: a runtime system for heterogeneous multi-core architectures
Heterogeneous multi-core processors, such as the IBM Cell processor, can deliver high performance. However, these processors are notoriously difficult to program: different cores...
