Trace-driven simulation of superscalar processors is particularly complicated. The dynamic nature of superscalar processors combined with the static nature of traces can lead to l...
—Multicore architectures have established themselves as the new generation of computer architectures. As part of the one core to many cores evolution, memory access mechanisms ha...
Complexity in commodity operating systems makes compromises inevitable. Consequently, a great deal of work has examined how to protect security-critical portions of applications f...
