Phase-Change Memory (PCM) technology has received substantial attention recently. Because PCM is byte-addressable and exhibits access times in the nanosecond range, it can be used...
While hard disk drives are the most common secondary storage devices, their high power consumption and low shockresistance limit them as an ideal mobile storage solution. On the o...
We present a new exploration and optimization method to select customized implementations for dynamic data sets, as encountered in telecom network, database and multimedia applica...

— Architectural resources and program recurrences are the main limitations to the amount of Instruction-Level Parallelism (ILP) exploitable from loops, the most time-consuming pa...
This paper presents an energy-conservation method for multiple disks and their cache memory. Our method periodically resizes the cache memory and controls the rotation speeds unde...
