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...
We present an extension of a mathematical framework proposed by the authors to deal with the composition of heterogeneous reactive systems. Our extended framework encompasses dive...
OLAP queries are typically heavy-weight and ad-hoc thus requiring high storage capacity and processing power. In this paper, we address this problem using a database cluster which...

Scheduling parallel jobs has been an active investigation area. The scheduler has to deal with heterogeneous workloads and try to obtain throughputs and response times such that en...
The message-passing paradigm is now widely accepted and used mainly for inter-process communication in distributed memory parallel systems. However, one of its disadvantages is the...
