Meerkat is a distributed memory multicomputer architecture that scales to hundreds of processors. Meerkat uses a two dimensional passive backplane to connect nodes composed of pro...
Extreme technology integration in the sub-micron regime comes with a rapid rise in heat dissipation and power density for modern processors. Dynamic voltage scaling is a widely us...

We present Grouped Distributed Queues (GDQ), the first proportional share scheduler for multiprocessor systems that scales well with a large number of processors and processes. G...
System design must strike a balance between energy and performance by carefully selecting the speed at which the system will run. In this work, we examine fundamental tradeoffs i...
— Clock frequency and transistor density increases have resulted in elevated chip temperatures. In order to meet temperature constraints while still exploiting the performance op...
