This paper explores statistical simulation as a fast simulation technique for driving chip multiprocessor (CMP) design space exploration. The idea of statistical simulation is to ...
Fast and effective distribution of software updates (a.k.a. patches) to millions of Internet users has evolved into a critical task over the last years. In this paper, we characte...

: Software cache coherence schemes are very desirable in the design of scalable multiprocessors and massively parallel processors. The authors propose a software cache coherence sc...
Simulating realistic lighting and rendering complex scenes are usually considered separate problems with incompatible solutions. Accurate lighting calculations are typically perfo...
