The amount of Task Level Parallelism (TLP) in runtime workload is useful information to determine the efficient usage of multiprocessors. This paper presents mechanisms to dynami...
Abstract. This paper describes a mechanism for “fusing” concurrent invocations of exclusive methods. The target of our work is object-oriented languages with concurrent extensi...
Abstract. This article describes the addition to the von Neumann cellular automaton of the Tom Thumb Algorithm, a mechanism developed for the self-replication of multi-processor sy...
Researchers have recently proposed coupling small- to mediumscale multiprocessors to build large-scale shared memory machines, known as multigrain shared memory systems. Multigrai...
We defeat two proposed Unix file-system race condition defense mechanisms. First, we attack the probabilistic defense mechanism of Tsafrir, et al., published at USENIX FAST 2008[...
