The pervasiveness of multiprocessor and multicore hardware and the rising level of available parallelism are radically changing the computing landscape. Can software deal with tom...
Hybrid chip multithreaded SMPs present new challenges as well as new opportunities to maximize performance. Our intention is to discover the optimal operating configuration of suc...
In order to reduce the overhead of synchronizing operations of shared memory multiprocessors, this paper proposes a mechanism, named specMEM, to execute memory accesses following ...
This paper examinestheimplicationsofgang schedulingfor generalpurpose multiprocessors. The workloads in these environments include both compute-bound parallel jobs, which often re...
