Shared memory multiprocessors play an increasingly important role in enterprise and scientific computing facilities. Remote misses limit the performance of shared memory applicat...
We describe the clipmap, a dynamic texture representation that efficiently caches textures of arbitrarily large size in a finite amount of physical memory for rendering at real-...

We present an extension to an existing SPARC V8 instruction set simulator, SimICS, to support accurate profiling of branches and instruction cache misses. SimICS had previously su...
This paper investigates the performance implications of data placement in OpenMP programs running on modern ccNUMA multiprocessors. Data locality and minimization of the rate of r...

Despite years of research, the design of efficient nonblocking algorithms remains difficult. A key reason is that current shared-memory multiprocessor architectures support only s...
