Real-time schedulability theory requires a priori knowledge of the worst-case execution time (WCET) of every task in the system. Fundamental to the calculation of WCET is a schedu...
Recently, cheap and large capacity non-volatile memory such as flash memory is rapidly replacing disks not only in embedded systems, but also in high performance servers. Unlike ...

Abstract. This paper discusses the state-of-the-art fast software implementation of block ciphers on Intel’s new microprocessor Core2, particularly concentrating on “bitslice i...
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...
Trace-driven simulation is an important technique used in the evaluation of computer architecture innovations. However using it for studying parallel computers and applications is...
