Abstract— This paper proposes to speedup sampled microprocessor simulations by reducing warmup times without sacrificing simulation accuracy. It exploiting the observation that ...
As the speed gap between CPU and memory widens, memory hierarchy has become the primary factor limiting program performance. Until now, the principal focus of hardware and softwar...
This paper proposes the use of microprocessor performance counters for online measurement of complete system power consumption. While past studies have demonstrated the use of per...
OpenMP has emerged as an important model and language extension for shared-memory parallel programming. On shared-memory platforms, OpenMP offers an intuitive, incremental approac...
Multiple memory module architecture enjoys higher memory access bandwidth and thus higher performance. Two key problems in gaining high performance in this kind of architecture ar...
