This paper explores a new technique called coherence decoupling, which breaks a traditional cache coherence protocol into two protocols: a Speculative Cache Lookup (SCL) protocol ...
Tagging schemes have been used in security protocols to ensure that the analysis of such protocols can work with messages of bounded length. When the set of nonces is bounded, this...
We explore the complexity of computing tilings of orthogonal polygons using colored dominoes. A colored domino is a rotatable 2 × 1 rectangle that is partitioned into two unit squ...
Instruction issue consumes a large amount of energy in out of order processors, largely in the wakeup logic. Proposed solutions to the problem require prediction or additional hard...
FAD is a powerful and simple language designed for a highly parallel database machine. The basic concepts of the language are its data structures (which we call objects) and its p...
