Guaranteeing instruction fetch behavior with a lookahead instruction fetch engine (LIFE)
Instruction fetch behavior has been shown to be very regular and predictable, even for diverse application areas. In this work, we propose the Lookahead Instruction Fetch Engine (...

Effective Instruction Prefetching in Chip Multiprocessors for Modern Commercial Applications
In this paper, we study the instruction cache miss behavior of four modern commercial applications (a database workload, TPC-W, SPECjAppServer2002 and SPECweb99). These applicatio...

MaTCH : Mapping Data-Parallel Tasks on a Heterogeneous Computing Platform Using the Cross-Entropy Heuristic
We propose in this paper a heuristic for mapping a set of interacting tasks of a parallel application onto a heterogeneous computing platform such as a computational grid. Our nov...
