Conventional paging systems do not perform well with large object-oriented environments (such as Smalltalk-801 [GR83]) due to the fine granularity of objects and the persistence o...
ion layer3,4 hides hardware particulars from the higher levels of software but can also compromise performance and compatibility; the higher levels of software often make unwitting...
We present an experimental study showing that soft memory errors can lead to serious security vulnerabilities in Java and .NET virtual machines, or in any system that relies on ty...
