This paper investigates a complexity-effective technique for verifying a highly distributed directory-based cache coherence protocol. We develop a novel approach called “witnes...
RCCS is a variant of Milner’s CCS where processes are allowed a controlled form of backtracking. It turns out that the RCCS reinterpretation of a CCS process is equivalent, in t...
Large scale distributed systems typically have interactions among different services that create an avenue for propagation of a failure from one service to another. The failures ...
Power distribution and signal transmission are becoming key limiters for chip performance in nanometer era. These issues can be simultaneously addressed by designing transmission ...

In processors with several levels of hardware resource sharing, like CMPs in which each core is an SMT, the scheduling process becomes more complex than in processors with a singl...
