The caching behavior of multimedia applications has been described as having high instruction reference locality within small loops, very large working sets, and poor data cache p...
As the performance gap between the CPU and main memory continues to grow, techniques to hide memory latency are essential to deliver a high performance computer system. Prefetchin...
In this paper, we study the effectiveness of the multilevel paradigm in considerably reducing the diagnosis latency of distributed algorithms for fault detection in networks with ...
The Cell processor is a heterogeneous multi-core processor with one Power Processing Engine (PPE) core and eight Synergistic Processing Engine (SPE) cores. Each SPE has a directly...
