An important means of validating the design of commercial-grade shared memory multiprocessors is to run a large number of pseudo-random test programs on them. However, when intent...
—Clusters and applications continue to grow in size while their mean time between failure (MTBF) is getting smaller. Checkpoint/Restart is becoming increasingly important for lar...
These days an increasing number of applications, especially in science and engineering, are dealing with a massive amount of data; hence they are dataintensive. Bioinformatics, da...
The Murϕ-based Hopper tool is a general purpose explicit model checker. Hopper leverages Murϕ’s class structure to implement new algorithms. Hopper differs from Murϕ in that i...
A hardware-assisted design, dubbed cache-oriented multistage structure (COMS), is proposed for fast packet forwarding. COMS incorporates small on-chip cache memory in its constitu...
