Binary Decision Diagrams BDDs are e cient at manipulating large sets in a compact manner. BDDs, however, are inefcient at utilizing the memory hierarchy of the computer. Recent ...
PVM and other distributed computing systems have enabled the use of networks of workstations for parallel computation, but their approach of treating all networks as collections o...
We assert that in order to perform well, a shared-memory multiprocessorinter-process communication (IPC)facility mustavoid a) accessing any shared data, and b) acquiring any locks...
Recognizing commonly used data structures and algorithms is a key activity in reverse engineering. Systems developed to automate this recognition process have been isolated, stand...
In order to maximize systemperformancein environments with fluctuating memory contention, memory-intensive algorithms such as hash join must gracefully adapt to variations in avai...
