Predicting how well applications may run on modern systems is becoming increasingly challenging. It is no longer sufficient to look at number of floating point operations and commu...
Given the increasing complexity of multi-processor systems-onchip, a wide range of parameters must be tuned to find the best trade-offs in terms of the selected system figures of ...

Exponentially rising cooling/packaging costs due to high power density call for architectural and software-level thermal management. Dynamic thermal management (DTM) techniques co...
One of the essential features in modern computer systems is context switching, which allows multiple threads of execution to time-share a limited number of processors. While very ...
