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 problem attacked in this paper is one of automatically mapping an application onto a Network-on-Chip (NoC) based chip multiprocessor (CMP) architecture in a locality-aware fas...

Maintenance activities are made more difficult when pointers are heavily used in source code: the programmer needs to build a mental model of memory locations and of the way they ...
Increasingly, new applications are being built by composing existing software components rather than by coding a system from scratch. Using this approach, applications can be buil...
Modern integrated circuits (ICs) are becoming increasingly complex. The complexity makes it difficult to design, manufacture and integrate these high-performance ICs. The advent o...
