This paper presents a novel VLSI architecture for high-speed data compressor designs which implement the well-known LZ77 algorithm. The architecture mainly consists of three units...
Software-controlled data prefetching is a promising technique for improving the performance of the memory subsystem to match today's high-performance processors. While prefet...
In this paper, we investigate the practical performance of lock-free techniques that provide synchronization on shared-memory multiprocessors. Our goal is to provide a technique t...
As disk arrays become widely used, tools for understanding and analyzing their performance become increasingly important. In particular, performance models can be invaluable in bo...
The CLOCK algorithm is a popular buffer replacement algorithm becauseof its simplicity and its ability to approximate the performance of the Least Recently Used (LRU) replacement ...
