The Sony-Toshiba-IBM Cell Broadband Engine is a heterogeneous multicore architecture that consists of a traditional microprocessor (PPE) with eight SIMD coprocessing units (SPEs) ...
The buffer pool manager is a central component of ADABAS, a high performance scaleable database system for OLTP processing. High efficiency and scalability of the buffer pool mana...
Applications composed of multiple parallel libraries perform poorly when those libraries interfere with one another by obliviously using the same physical cores, leading to destru...
In the area of Grid computing, there is a growing need to process large amounts of data. To support this trend, we need to develop efficient parallel storage systems that can prov...
This paper proposes the study of a new computation model that attempts to address the underlying sources of performance degradation (e.g. latency, overhead, and starvation) and th...
