Partitioning is a key database task. In this paper we explore partitioning performance on a chip multiprocessor (CMP) that provides a relatively high degree of on-chip thread-leve...
A major performance bottleneck for database systems is the memory hierarchy. The performance of the memory hierarchy is directly related to how the content of disk pages maps to t...
CMOS technology trends are leading to an increasing incidence of hard (permanent) faults in processors. These faults may be introduced at fabrication or occur in the field. Wherea...
The poor scalability of existing superscalar processors has been of great concern to the computer engineering community. In particular, the critical-path lengths of many components...

Today’s chip-level multiprocessors (CMPs) feature up to a hundred discrete cores, and with increasing levels of integration, CMPs with hundreds of cores, cache tiles, and specia...
