While caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures due to their ability to hide, in part, the gap between processor speed and memory access times, caches (and partic...
Multitasked real-time systems often employ caches to boost performance. However the unpredictable dynamic behavior of caches makes schedulability analysis of such systems difficul...
Debugging real systems is hard, requires deep knowledge of the code, and is time-consuming. Bug reports rarely provide sufficient information, thus forcing developers to turn int...
In this paper, we present a parallel implementation for the steady-state analysis of continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs). This analysis is performed via solution of a linear equ...
This paper discusses our implementation and experience with a camera-based whiteboard scanner. The ZombieBoard system (so called because it brings to electronic life the marks on a...
