We present a new arrangement of directory bits called the segment directory to improve directory storage efficiency: a segment directory can point to several sharing processors wi...
Manufacturing disturbances are inevitable in the fabrication of integrated circuits. These disturbances will result in variations in the delay specications of manufactured circui...
Stochastic simulation models are used to predict the behavior of real systems whose components have random variation. The simulation model generates artificial random quantities b...
Recent studies have showed the effectiveness of job co-scheduling in alleviating shared-cache contention on Chip Multiprocessors. Although program inputs affect cache usage and thu...
Internet traffic exhibits a rich autocorrelation behavior, responsible for curving the Energy/Averaging function. We show that the traffic exhibits variations of its details in ma...
