An analysis of the effects of miss clustering on the cost of a cache miss
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...

Paravirtualized Paging
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...

The Case for Better Throughput Estimation
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...

Computer Generation of Efficient Software Viterbi Decoders
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...

Optimizing Loop Performance for Clustered VLIW Architectures
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...
