Improvements in main memory speeds have not kept pace with increasing processor clock frequency and improved exploitation of instruction-level parallelism. Consequently, the gap b...
The foremost goal of superscalar processor design is to increase performance through the exploitation of instruction-level parallelism (ILP). Previous studies have shown that spec...
Debugging data races in parallel applications is a difficult task. Error-causing data races may appear to vanish due to changes in an application's optimization level, thread...

The file I/O classes present in Java have proven too inefficient to meet the demands of high-performance applications that perform large amounts of I/O. The inefficiencies stem pr...
Multi-core processors, with low communication costs and high availability of execution cores, will increase the use of execution and compilation models that use short threads to e...
