This paper examines the application of a simple yet general packet replication scheme to achieve multicasting in closed interconnection networks. The performance of these networks...
Modern microprocessors offer more instruction-level parallelism than most programs and compilers can currently exploit. The resulting disparity between a machine's peak and a...
During the past few years, several studies have been made on the performance of real-time database systems with respect to the number of transactions that miss their deadlines. Th...
Parallel programs that use critical sections and are executed on a shared-memory multiprocessor with a writeinvalidate protocol result in invalidation actions that could be elimin...
Both hardware and software prefetching have been shown to be e ective in tolerating the large memory latencies inherent in shared-memory multiprocessors however, both types of pre...
