Abstract—Chip multiprocessors (CMPs) present a unique scenario for software data prefetching with subtle tradeoffs between memory bandwidth and performance. In a shared L2 based ...
The Network-on-Chip (NoC) paradigm has emerged as a promising solution for providing connectivity among the increasing number of cores that get integrated into both systems-onchip...

In a multi-programmed computing environment, threads of execution exhibit different runtime characteristics and hardware resource requirements. Not only do the behaviors of distin...
In current multi-media systems major parts of the functionality consist of software tasks executed on a set of concurrently operating processors. Those tasks interfere with each o...
