The lack of memory safety in many popular programming languages, including C and C++, has been a cause for great concern in the realm of software reliability, verification, and mo...
Today, most personal mobile devices (e.g. cell phones and PDAs) are multimedia-enabled and support a variety of concurrently running applications such as audio/video players, word...
Simulating chip-multiprocessor systems (CMP) can take a long time. For single-threaded workloads, earlier work has shown the utility of phase analysis, that is identification of r...
