Abstract. The purpose of this paper is (1) to provide a theoretical justification for the use of Monte-Carlo sampling for approximate resolution of NP-hard maximization problems in...
The relentless push for high performance in custom digital circuits has led to renewed emphasis on circuit optimization or tuning. The parameters of the optimization are typically...
In this paper we propose a novel software-only distributed sharedmemory system (SW-DSM), the Affinity Entry Consistency (AEC) protocol. The protocol is based on Entry Consistency ...
Abstract. We reexamine the limits of parallelism available in programs, using runtime reconstruction of program data-flow graphs. While limits of parallelism have been examined in...
