A future is a well-known programming construct used to introduce concurrency to sequential programs. Computations annotated as futures are executed asynchronously and run concurren...
Task-selection policies are critical to the performance of any architecture that uses speculation to extract parallel tasks from a sequential thread. This paper demonstrates that ...

Many important applications exhibit large amounts of data parallelism, and modern computer systems are designed to take advantage of it. While much of the computation in the multi...
The use of the Java programming language for implementing server-side application logic is increasing in popularity, yet there is very little known about the architectural require...
