Support for optimistic parallelism such as thread-level speculation (TLS) and transactional memory (TM) has been proposed to ease the task of parallelizing software to exploit the...
Due to power wall, memory wall, and ILP wall, we are facing the end of ever increasing single-threaded performance. For this reason, multicore and manycore processors are arising ...
With the right techniques, multicore architectures may be able to continue the exponential performance trend that elevated the performance of applications of all types for decades...

Abstract. In this article we present the results obtained from the execution of a commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics program on a cluster of personal computers. The communicat...
Configurations of contemporary DRAM memory systems become increasingly complex. A recent study [5] shows that application performance is highly sensitive to choices of configura...
