Due to modern technology trends such as decreasing feature sizes and lower voltage levels, fault tolerance is becoming increasingly important in computing systems. Shared memory i...
In this work we investigate the impact of evolving memory system features, such as large on-chip caches, automatic prefetch, and the growing distance to main memory on 3D stencil ...

Many computer hardware and software architectures buffer data in memory to improve system performance. Volatile disk or file caches are sometimes used to delay the propagation of ...
Due to the rapid growth in the size of the web, web search engines are facing enormous performance challenges. The larger engines in particular have to be able to process tens of ...
Abstract—To deal with the “memory wall” problem, microprocessors include large secondary on-chip caches. But as these caches enlarge, they originate a new latency gap between...
