This research explores any potential for an on-chip cache compression which can reduce not only cache miss ratio but also miss penalty, if main memory is also managed in compresse...
We present three new reader-writer lock algorithms that scale under high read-only contention. Many previous reader-writer locks suffer significant degradation when many readers a...
Exponentially growing bandwidth requirements and slowing gains in processor speeds have led to the popularity of multiprocessor architectures. Network stack parallelism is increas...
In this paper we present a paradigm to express streams and its implementation. Streams are a convenient mechanism to communicate multimedia data, for example video or audio, betwe...
Recent improvements in architectural supports for virtualization have extended traditional hardware page walkers to traverse nested page tables. However, current twodimensional (2...
