Developing countries face significant challenges in network access, making even simple network tasks unpleasant. Many standard techniques—caching and predictive prefetching— ...
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...
Hardware support for dynamic analysis can minimize the performance overhead of useful applications such as security checks, debugging, and profiling. To eliminate implementation ...
Tracing algorithms visit reachable nodes in a graph and are central to activities such as garbage collection, marshalling etc. Traditional sequential algorithms use a worklist, re...
Software has spent the bounty of Moore’s law by solving harder problems and exploiting abstractions, such as highlevel languages, virtual machine technology, binary rewritdynami...
