Supporting highly-decoupled thread-level redundancy for parallel programs
The continued scaling of device dimensions and the operating voltage reduces the critical charge and thus natural noise tolerance level of transistors. As a result, circuits can p...

Wait-free consensus with infinite arrivals
A randomized algorithm is given that solves the wait-free consensus problem for a shared-memory model with infinitely many processes. The algorithm is based on a weak shared coin ...

Modeling skew in data streams
Data stream applications have made use of statistical summaries to reason about the data using nonparametric tools such as histograms, heavy hitters, and join sizes. However, rela...

Is transactional programming actually easier?
Chip multi-processors (CMPs) have become ubiquitous, while tools that ease concurrent programming have not. The promise of increased performance for all applications through ever ...

High-resolution, low-power time synchronization an oxymoron no more
We present Virtual High-resolution Time (VHT), a powerproportional time-keeping service that offers a baseline power draw of a low-speed clock (e.g. 32 kHz crystal), but provides...
