Many programs exploit shared-memory parallelism using multithreading. Threaded codes typically use locks to coordinate access to shared data. In many cases, contention for locks r...

A fine-grain parallel program is one in which processes are typically small, ranging from a few to a few hundred instructions. Fine-grain parallelism arises naturally in many situ...

Abstract--Limited preemption scheduling has been introduced as a viable alternative to non-preemptive and fullypreemptive scheduling when reduced blocking times need to coexist wit...

Modeling for synthesis and modeling for simulation seem to be two competing goals in the context of C++-based modeling frameworks. One of the reasons is while most hardware system...
This paper proposes two mechanisms for reducing the communication-related overheads of Web applications. One mechanism is user-level connection tracking, which allows an applicati...
