Estimating cache misses and locality using stack distances
Cache behavior modeling is an important part of modern optimizing compilers. In this paper we present a method to estimate the number of cache misses, at compile time, using a mac...

Transactional memory with strong atomicity using off-the-shelf memory protection hardware
This paper introduces a new way to provide strong atomicity in an implementation of transactional memory. Strong atomicity lets us offer clear semantics to programs, even if they ...

Implementing Application-Specific Cache-Coherence Protocols in Configurable Hardware
Streamlining communication is key to achieving good performance in shared-memory parallel programs. While full hardware support for cache coherence generally offers the best perfo...

Massive multiplayer human computation for fun, money, and survival
Crowdsourcing is an effective tool to solve hard tasks. By bringing 100,000s of people to work on simple tasks that only humans can do, we can go far beyond traditional models of ...

Efficient hybrid typestate analysis by determining continuation-equivalent states
Typestate analysis determines whether a program violates a set of finite-state properties. Because the typestate-analysis problem is statically undecidable, researchers have propo...
