Due to the widespread software piracy and virus attacks, significant efforts have been made to improve security for computer systems. For stand-alone computers, a key observation...
In this paper we present the impact of dynamically translating any sequence of instructions into combinational logic. The proposed approach combines a reconfigurable architecture ...
Abstract. The paradigm shift in processor design from monolithic processors to multicore has renewed interest in programming models that facilitate parallelism. While multicores ar...

The issue logic of a superscalar processor dissipates a large amount of static and dynamic power. Furthermore, its power density makes it a hot-spot requiring expensive cooling sy...
Abstract—Software Distributed Shared Memory (SDSM) systems provide programmers with a shared memory programming environment across distributed memory architectures. In contrast t...
