We describe the design and implementation of a new data layout scheme, called multi-dimensional clustering, in DB2 Universal Database Version 8. Many applications, e.g., OLAP and ...
Aggressive prefetching is very beneficial for memory latency tolerance of many applications. However, it faces significant challenges in multi-core systems. Prefetchers of diff...
With over half a billion users, Online Social Networks (OSNs) are the major new applications on the Internet. Little information is available on the network impact of OSNs, althou...
New storage-class memory (SCM) technologies, such as phasechange memory, STT-RAM, and memristors, promise user-level access to non-volatile storage through regular memory instruct...
This paper describes a customisable processor designed to accelerate execution of inductive logic programming, targeting advanced field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technology. ...
