Concurrent multithreaded architectures exploit both instruction-level and thread-level parallelism through a combination of branch prediction and thread-level control speculation. ...
This paper presents a connection handoff interface between the operating system and the network interface. Using this interface, the operating system can offload a subset of TCP c...
Store misses cause significant delays in shared-memory multiprocessors because of limited store buffering and ordering constraints required for proper synchronization. Today, prog...
