Clusters of SMPs are becoming increasingly common. However, the shared memory design of SMPs and the consequential contention between system processors for access to main memory c...
In asynchronous event systems, the production of an event is decoupled from its consumption via an event queue. The loose coupling of such systems allows great flexibility as to ...
Symbiotic job scheduling boosts simultaneous multithreading (SMT) processor performance by co-scheduling jobs that have ‘compatible’ demands on the processor’s shared resour...
Today's processors provide a rich source of statistical information on program execution characteristics through hardware counters. However, traditionally, operating system (...
The pre-computation of data cubes is critical to improving the response time of On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) systems and can be instrumental in accelerating data mining tas...
