The ability to check memory references against their associated array/buffer bounds helps programmers to detect programming errors involving address overruns early on and thus avo...
In this paper we describe a new technique, called pipeline spectroscopy, and use it to measure the cost of each cache miss. The cost of a miss is displayed (graphed) as a histogra...
