Learning useful and predictable features from past workloads and exploiting them well is a major source of improvement in many operating system problems. We review known parallel ...
A coarse-grain multithreaded processor can effectively hide long memory latencies by quickly switching to an alternate task when the active task issues a memory request, improving...
Model checking based on validating temporal logic formulas has proven practical and effective for numerous software engineering applications. As systems based on this approach ha...
