Late changes in silicon design (ECO) is a common although undesired practice. The need for ECO exists even in high-level design flows since bugs may occur in the specifications, ...
Tracing algorithms visit reachable nodes in a graph and are central to activities such as garbage collection, marshalling etc. Traditional sequential algorithms use a worklist, re...
—This paper explores the use of compiler optimizations which optimize the layout of instructions in memory. The target is to enable the code to make better use of the underlying ...
State-of-the-art networked storage servers are equipped with increasingly powerful computing capability and large DRAM memory as storage caches. However, their contribution to the...
Important insights into program operation can be gained by observing dynamic execution behavior. Unfortunately, many high-performance machines provide execution profile summaries ...
