Obtaining good performance from a distributed replicated database that allows update transactions to originate at any site while ensuring one-copy serializability is a challenge. ...
In object-oriented database systems (OODB) with logical OIDs, an OID index (OIDX) is needed to map from OID to the physical location of the object. In a transaction time temporal ...
This paper introduces a new abstraction to accelerate the readbarriers and write-barriers used by language runtime systems. We exploit the fact that, dynamically, many barrier exe...
With increasing chip densities, future microprocessor designs have the opportunity to integrate many of the traditional systemlevel modules onto the same chip as the processor. So...
