The BaBar experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) is designed to perform a high precision investigation of the decays of the B-meson produced from electron-pos...
Data-intensive applications in the Condor High Throughput Computing environment can place heavy demands on network resources for checkpointing and remote data access. We have deve...
This paper presents a recovery protocol for block I/O operations in Slice, a storage system architecture for highspeed LANs incorporating network-attached block storage. The goal ...
Main memory accesses continue to be a significant bottleneck for applications whose working sets do not fit in second-level caches. With the trend of greater associativity in seco...
Growth and usage trends for large decision support databases indicate that there is a need for architectures that scale the processing power as the dataset grows. To meet this nee...
Memorylatency isbecominganincreasingly importantperformance bottleneck, especially in multiprocessors. One technique for tolerating memory latency is multithreading, whereby we sw...
We consider a variety of dynamic, hardware-based methods for exploiting load/store parallelism, including mechanisms that use memory dependence speculation. While previous work ha...
We are attacking the memory bottleneck by building a “smart” memory controller that improves effective memory bandwidth, bus utilization, and cache efficiency by letting appl...
