Architectural simulation has achieved a prominent role in the system design cycle by providing designers the ability to quickly examine a wide variety of design choices. However, ...
In this paper, we study the instruction cache miss behavior of four modern commercial applications (a database workload, TPC-W, SPECjAppServer2002 and SPECweb99). These applicatio...
With the emergence of software delivery platforms such as Microsoft's .NET, code compression has become one of the core enabling technologies strongly affecting system perfor...
Nearest neighbor (NN) classification assumes locally constant class conditional probabilities, and suffers from bias in high dimensions with a small sample set. In this paper, we p...
MPI is the main standard for communication in high-performance clusters. MPI implementations use the Eager protocol to transfer small messages. To avoid the cost of memory registr...
