Clustered microarchitectures are an effective organization to deal with the problem of wire delays and complexity by partitioning some of the processor resources. The organization ...
The cache hierarchy design in existing SMT and superscalar processors is optimized for latency, but not for bandwidth. The size of the L1 data cache did not scale over the past dec...
The simulated evaluation of memory management policies relies on reference traces—logs of memory operations performed by running processes. No existing approach to reference tra...
Currently, paradigms such as component-based software development and service-oriented software architectures promote modularization of software systems into highly decoupled and ...
