Our study compares CPU performance on RISC and CISC uni and multiprocessors of varying speeds, and shows that the Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) style no longer matters. Our s...
In this paper, we report on the performance of the remote procedure call implementation for the Firefly multiprocessor and analyze the implementation to account precisely for all ...
The Java memory model described in Chapter 17 of the Java Language Specification gives constraints on how threads interact through memory. This chapter is hard to interpret and po...
—When parallel programs are executed on multiprocessors with private caches, a set of data may be repeatedly used and modified by different threads. Such data sharing can often r...
In this paper we propose the Merge framework, a general purpose programming model for heterogeneous multi-core systems. The Merge framework replaces current ad hoc approaches to p...
