Typestate Checking of Machine Code
We check statically whether it is safe for untrusted foreign machine code to be loaded into a trusted host system. (Here “safety” means that the program abides by a memory-acc...

On the Usefulness of Liveness for Garbage Collection and Leak Detection
Abstract. The effectiveness of garbage collectors and leak detectors in identifying dead objects depends on the “accuracy” of their reachability traversal. Accuracy has two ort...

Phase guided sampling for efficient parallel application simulation
Simulating chip-multiprocessor systems (CMP) can take a long time. For single-threaded workloads, earlier work has shown the utility of phase analysis, that is identification of r...

Improving the performance of speculatively parallel applications on the Hydra CMP
Hydra is a chip multiprocessor (CMP) with integrated support for thread-level speculation. Thread-level speculation provides a way to parallelize sequential programs without the n...

Cooperative reasoning for preemptive execution
We propose a cooperative methodology for multithreaded software, where threads use traditional synchronization idioms such as locks, but additionally document each point of potent...
