In this paper we describe a new technique, called pipeline spectroscopy, and use it to measure the cost of each cache miss. The cost of a miss is displayed (graphed) as a histogra...

Conceptually, fast server-side page cache storage could dramatically reduce paging I/O. In this extended abstract, we speculate how such a device might be used, then show how it c...

A Web proxy must accurately predict network performance between itself and its servers and clients in order to make good distillation decisions. In this paper, we show that the cu...
This paper presents a program generator for fast software Viterbi decoders for arbitrary convolutional codes. The input to the generator is a specification of the code and a single...
Modern embedded systems often require high degrees of instruction-level parallelism (ILP) within strict constraints on power consumption and chip cost. Unfortunately, a high-perfo...
