MemSpy: Analyzing Memory System Bottlenecks in Programs
To cope with the increasing difference between processor and main memory speeds, modern computer systems use deep memory hierarchies. In the presence of such hierarchies, the perf...

An effective hybrid transactional memory system with strong isolation guarantees
We propose signature-accelerated transactional memory (SigTM), a hybrid TM system that reduces the overhead of software transactions. SigTM uses hardware signatures to track the r...

A New Memory Monitoring Scheme for Memory-Aware Scheduling and Partitioning
We propose a low overhead, on-line memory monitoring scheme utilizing a set of novel hardware counters. The counters act like pressure gauges indicating the marginal gain in the n...
