In this paper we propose the OPTNET, a novel optical network and associated coherence protocol for scalable multiprocessors. The network divides its channels into broadcast and po...
As main memory capacity increases, more of the database read requests will be satis ed from the bu er system. Consequently, the amount of disk write operations relative to disk re...
New telecommunication services and mobility networks have introduced databases in telecommunication networks. Compared with traditional use of databases, telecom databases must fu...
Abstract. This paper presents Combine, a distributed directory protocol for shared objects, designed for large-scale distributed systems. Directory protocols support move requests,...
Multiprocessor systems present serious challenges in the design of real-time systems due to the wider variation of execution time of an instruction sequence compared to a uniproce...
