This paper introduces a new abstraction to accelerate the readbarriers and write-barriers used by language runtime systems. We exploit the fact that, dynamically, many barrier exe...
This paper presents an analytical model to predict the performance of general-purpose applications on a GPU architecture. The model is designed to provide performance information ...
