—This paper aims at improving the power efficiency of the CSMA/CA protocol for transmission of multimedia information over multihop wireless channels. Using a distance dependent ...
In this paper, we study the instruction cache miss behavior of four modern commercial applications (a database workload, TPC-W, SPECjAppServer2002 and SPECweb99). These applicatio...
This paper presents the Distributed Cooperative Caching, a scalable and energy-efficient scheme to manage chip multiprocessor (CMP) cache resources. The proposed configuration is...
Modern chip-level multiprocessors (CMPs) contain multiple processor cores sharing a common last-level cache, memory interconnects, and other hardware resources. Workloads running ...
