Path: page access tracking to improve memory management
Traditionally, operating systems use a coarse approximation of memory accesses to implement memory management algorithms by monitoring page faults or scanning page table entries. ...

Hardware Enforcement of Application Security Policies Using Tagged Memory
Computers are notoriously insecure, in part because application security policies do not map well onto traditional protection mechanisms such as Unix user accounts or hardware pag...

Efficient asynchronous memory copy operations on multi-core systems and I/OAT
Bulk memory copies incur large overheads such as CPU stalling (i.e., no overlap of computation with memory copy operation), small register-size data movement, cache pollution, etc...

Using Reference Counters in Update-Based Coherent Memory
Abstract. As the disparity between processor and memory speed continues to widen, the exploitation of locality of reference in shared-memory multiprocessors becomes an increasingly...

HiPEC: High Performance External Virtual Memory Caching
Traditional operating systems use a xed LRU-like page replacement policy and centralized frame pool that cannot properly serve all types of memory access patterns of various appli...
