This paper investigates helper threads that improve performance by prefetching data on behalf of an application’s main thread. The focus is data prefetch helper threads that lac...
One model of multithreading gaining popularity on multiprocessor systems is the message-driven model of computation. The message-driven model is a reactive model in which an arriv...
Sophisticated C compiler support for network processors (NPUs) is required to improve their usability and consequently, their acceptance in system design. Nonetheless, high-level ...
Software-based active replication is expensive in terms of performance overhead. Multithreading can help improve performance; however, thread scheduling is a source of nondetermin...

Abstract. We study bisimulation and minimization for weighted automata, relying on a geometrical representation of the model, linear weighted automata (lwa). In a lwa, the state-sp...
