Customisable embedded processors are becoming available on the market, thus making it possible for designers to speed up execution of applications by using Application-specific F...
Communication misses--those serviced by dirty data in remote caches--are a pressing performance limiter in shared-memory multiprocessors. Recent research has indicated that tempor...
Cross-module inter-procedural compiler optimization (IPO) and Feedback-Directed Optimization (FDO) are two important compiler techniques delivering solid performance gains. The co...
In profiling, a tradeoff exists between information and overhead. For example, hardware-sampling profilers incur negligible overhead, but the information they collect is consequen...
