To increase the bandwidth of synchronous memories that are widely adopted for high performance memory systems, a predictive mode control scheme is proposed to reduce memory latenc...
We demonstrate that the run time of implicitly parallel programs can be statically predicted with considerable accuracy when expressed within the constraints of a skeletal, shapel...
Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
Recent increases in CPU performance have surpassed those in hard drives. As a result, disk operations have become more expensive in terms of the number of CPU cycles spent waiting...
Menus are a primary control in current interfaces, but there has been relatively little theoretical work to model their performance. We propose a model of menu performance that go...
