Communication misses--those serviced by dirty data in remote caches--are a pressing performance limiter in shared-memory multiprocessors. Recent research has indicated that tempor...
This paper evaluates performance characteristics of the Compaq ES40 shared memory multiprocessor. The ES40 system contains up to four Alpha 21264 CPU’s together with a high-perf...
Recent high-performance processors employ sophisticated techniques to overlap and simultaneously execute multiple computation and memory operations. Intuitively, these techniques ...

Abstract. In this work we put into evidence how the memory performance of a WebServer machine may depend on the sharing induced by process migration. We considered a shared-bus sha...
Debuggers have been proven indispensable in improving software reliability. Unfortunately, on most real-life software, debuggers fail to deliver their most essential feature — a...
