Because changes to the database (DB) and workload occur during a DB system's lifetime, the physical DB design must evolve to sustain good performance. These changes are carri...
This paper compares the performance of hierarchical ring- and mesh-connected wormhole routed shared memory multiprocessor networks in a simulation study. Hierarchical rings are in...
Server consolidation is becoming an increasingly popular technique to manage and utilize systems. This paper develops CMP memory systems for server consolidation where most sharin...
With increasing chip densities, future microprocessor designs have the opportunity to integrate many of the traditional systemlevel modules onto the same chip as the processor. So...
Abstract This paper examines the behavior of current and next generation microprocessors' fetch engines while running Decision Support Systems (DSS) workloads. We analyze the ...
