In most modern operating systems, a process is a -protected abstraction for isolating code and data. This protection, however, is selective. Many common mechanisms—dynamic code ...
As CMOS feature sizes venture deep into the nanometer regime, wearout mechanisms including negative-bias temperature instability and timedependent dielectric breakdown can severely...

We present a new technique to implement operators that modify the topology of polygonal meshes at intersections and self-intersections. Depending on the modification strategy, th...
— As transistor sizes continue to shrink and the number of transistors per chip keeps increasing, chip multiprocessors (CMPs) are becoming a promising alternative to remain on th...
