Linked data structure (LDS) accesses are critical to the performance of many large scale applications. Techniques have been proposed to prefetch such accesses. Unfortunately, many...
Buffer overflow vulnerabilities are caused by programming errors that allow an attacker to cause the program to write beyond the bounds of an allocated memory block to corrupt oth...

Networked embedded systems such as wireless sensor networks are usually designed to be event-driven so that they are reactive and power efficient. Programming embedded systems wit...
We present a new scheme for dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVS) for processing multimedia streams on architectures with restricted buffer sizes. The main advantage of our ...
