A compiler-directed data prefetching scheme for chip multiprocessors
Data prefetching has been widely used in the past as a technique for hiding memory access latencies. However, data prefetching in multi-threaded applications running on chip multi...

A theory of platform-dependent low-level software
The C language definition leaves the sizes and layouts of types partially unspecified. When a C program makes assumptions about type layout, its semantics is defined only on platf...
