A value’s degree of use—the number of dynamic uses of that value—provides the most essential information needed to optimize its communication. We present simulation results ...
In a 64-bit processor, many of the data values actually used in computations require much narrower data-widths. In this study, we demonstrate that instruction data-widths exhibit ...
During the concept phase and definition of next generation high-end processors, power and performance will need to be weighted appropriately to deliver competitive cost/performan...

Narnia is middleware that helps programmers build multimedia communication services. This middleware ollection of familiar programming abstractions— including events, event hand...
We present fault localization techniques suitable for diagnosing end-to-end service problems in communication systems with complex topologies. We refine a layered system model th...
