Parity encoded redundant disk arrays provide highly reliable, cost effective secondary storage with high performance for read accesses and large write accesses. Their performance ...
Traditional list schedulers order instructions based on an optimistic estimate of the load latency imposed by the hardware and therefore cannot respond to variations in memory lat...
In this paper we describe a new technique, called pipeline spectroscopy, and use it to measure the cost of each cache miss. The cost of a miss is displayed (graphed) as a histogra...

Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) is emerging as an effective microarchitecture model to increase the utilization of resources in modern super-scalar processors. However, co-sched...
Blocking is a well-known optimization technique for improving the effectiveness of memory hierarchies. Instead of operating on entire rows or columns of an array, blocked algorith...
