In this paper, we present a hardware solution to perform non cache-line aligned memory copies allowing the commonly used memcpy function to cope with word copies. The main purpose...
Speculative pre-execution is a promising prefetching technique which uses an auxiliary assisting thread in addition to the main program flow. A prefetching thread (p-thread), whic...
Timing analysis for checking satisfaction of constraints is a crucial problem in real-time system design. In some current approaches, the delay of software modules is precalculate...

Performance prediction methods for component-based software systems aim at supporting design decisions of software architects during early development stages. With the increased a...
Due to the advent of multi-core processors and the consequent need for better concurrent programming abstractions, new synchronization paradigms have emerged. A promising one, kno...
