In embedded systems, performance and power are important inter-related issues that cannot be decoupled. Expensive and extensive simulations in a processor design space are usually...
In 2006, John Mellor-Crummey and Michael Scott received the Dijkstra Prize in Distributed Computing. This prize was for their 1991 paper on algorithms for scalable synchronization ...
In this paper, we examine the performance of frequent pattern mining algorithms on a modern processor. A detailed performance study reveals that even the best frequent pattern min...
— The concept of Remote Procedure Call (RPC) was proposed more than 30 years ago. Although various RPC systems have been studied and implemented, the existing RPC systems lack ma...
Most modern Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) feature shared cache on chip. For multithreaded applications, the sharing reduces communication latency among co-running threads, but also r...
