Many new Java runtime optimizations report relatively small, single-digit performance improvements. On modern virtual and actual hardware, however, the performance impact of an op...
—Shared cache allocation policies play an important role in determining CMP performance. The simplest policy, LRU, allocates cache implicitly as a consequence of its replacement ...
Parallel file subsystems in today’s high-performance computers adopt many I/O optimization strategies that were designed for distributed systems. These strategies, for instance...
