In embedded system-on-a-chip (SoC) applications, the need for integrating heterogeneous processors in a single chip is increasing. An important issue in integrating heterogeneous ...
Modern processors attempt to overcome increasing memory latencies by anticipating future references and prefetching those blocks from memory. The behavior and possible negative si...

In this paper we propose the use of an optical network not only as the communication medium, but also as a system-wide cache for the shared data in a multiprocessor. More specifica...
The aggressive evolution of the semiconductor industry — smaller process geometries, higher densities, and greater chip complexity — has provided design engineers the means to...
Intuitively, aggressive work sharing among concurrent queries in a database system should always improve performance by eliminating redundant computation or data accesses. We show...
