Memory system optimizations have been well studied on single-threaded systems; however, the wide use of simultaneous multithreading (SMT) techniques raises questions over their ef...
In this papel; we address the severe performance gap caused by high processor clock rates and slow DRAM accesses. We show that even with an aggressive, next-generation memory syst...
This paper presents three techniques for improving the effectiveness of the recently proposed Adaptive Stream Detection (ASD) prefetching mechanism. The ASD prefetcher is a standa...
Due to the widespread software piracy and virus attacks, significant efforts have been made to improve security for computer systems. For stand-alone computers, a key observation...
