— Tools such as pathchar, clink, and pchar attempt to measure the capacity of every Layer-3 (L3) hop in a network path. These tools use the same underlying measurement methodolog...
Data prefetching effectively reduces the negative effects of long load latencies on the performance of modern processors. Hardware prefetchers employ hardware structures to predic...

We consider a general approach to the hoary problem of (im)proving circuit lower bounds. We define notions of hardness condensing and hardness extraction, in analogy to the corres...
Abstract-- We describe new graph bipartization algorithms for layout modification and phase assignment of bright-field alternating phaseshifting masks (AltPSM) [25]. The problem of...

Regression testing is an expensive maintenance process used to revalidate modified software. Regression test selection (RTS) techniques attempt to reduce the cost of regression te...
