Aggressive hardware prefetching often significantly increases energy consumption in the memory system. Experiments show that a major fraction of prefetching related energy degrad...
Critical sections in database storage engines impact performance and scalability more as the number of hardware contexts per chip continues to grow exponentially. With enough thre...

Software engineering has traditionally focussed on functional requirements and how to build software that has few bugs and can be easily maintained. Most design approaches include...
In this paper, we describe the design, architecture, and the lessons learned from the implementation of a fast regular expression indexing engine FREE. FREE uses a prebuilt index ...
We present a security engineering process based on security problem frames and concretized security problem frames. Both kinds of frames constitute patterns for analyzing security...
