Configurations of contemporary DRAM memory systems become increasingly complex. A recent study [5] shows that application performance is highly sensitive to choices of configura...
With wide adoption of chip multiprocessors (CMPs) in modern computers, there is an increasing demand for large capacity main memory systems. The emerging PCM (Phase Change Memory) ...
Most high-end switches use an input-queued or a combined input- and output-queued architecture. The switch fabrics of these architectures commonly use an iterative scheduling syst...
Within the field of databases that are deployed in distributed environments there is a need to guarantee consistency among replicas and availability among nodes despite of networ...
In this paper a novel electronic payment protocol suitable for “peer-to-peer” (P2P) networks is presented. It implements electronic cash-based transactions, between buyers and...
