Abstract. This paper describes a mechanism for “fusing” concurrent invocations of exclusive methods. The target of our work is object-oriented languages with concurrent extensi...
This paper tests the hypothesis that generic recovery techniques, such as process pairs, can survive most application faults without using application-specific information. We ex...
We study the issue of performance prediction on the SGIPower Challenge, a typical SMP. On such a platform, the cost of memory accesses depends on their locality and on contention ...

As communication and I/O traffic increase on the interconnection network of high-performance systems, network contention becomes a critical problem drastically reducing performan...
Selective dynamic compilation systems, typically driven by annotations that identify run-time constants, can achieve significant program speedups. However, manually inserting ann...
