Synchronization in distributed systems is expensive because, in general, threads must stall to obtain a lock or to operate on volatile data. Transactional memory, on the other hand...
—Performance degradation of memory-intensive programs caused by the LRU policy’s inability to handle weaklocality data accesses in the last level cache is increasingly serious ...
Scientific investigations have to deal with rapidly growing amounts of data from simulations and experiments. During data analysis, scientists typically want to extract subsets o...
