The main memory management has been a critical issue to provide high performance in web cluster systems. To overcome the speed gap between processors and disks, many prefetch sche...
Various studies have shown that OS jitter can degrade parallel program performance considerably at large processor counts. Most sources of system jitter fall broadly into 5 catego...
C applications, in particular those using operating system level services, frequently comprise multiple crosscutting concerns: network protocols and security are typical examples ...
We present a methodology for the modeling of complex program behavior in CLP. In the first part we present an informal description about how to represent a system in CLP. At its ...
