Access/execute architectures have several advantages over more traditional architectures. Because address generation and memory access are decoupled from operand use, memory laten...
Blocking is a well-known optimization technique for improving the effectiveness of memory hierarchies. Instead of operating on entire rows or columns of an array, blocked algorith...

Following the ideas of the Remote Procedure Call model, we have developed a logic programming counterpart, naturally called Prolog Remote Predicate Call (Prolog RPC) [1]. The Prol...
We introduce the idea of optimisation validation, which is to formally establish that an instance of an optimising transformation indeed improves with respect to some resource mea...

Many language implementations, particularly for high-level and scripting languages, are based on carefully honed runtime systems that have an internally sequential execution model...
