Dereferee: exploring pointer mismanagement in student code
Dynamic memory management and the use of pointers are critical topics in teaching the C++ language. They are also some of the most difficult for students to grasp properly. The re...

How much parallelism is there in irregular applications?
Irregular programs are programs organized around pointer-based data structures such as trees and graphs. Recent investigations by the Galois project have shown that many irregular...

Beaver: Engineering an Efficient SMT Solver for Bit-Vector Arithmetic
We present the key ideas in the design and implementation of Beaver, an SMT solver for quantifier-free finite-precision bit-vector logic (QF BV). Beaver uses an eager approach, enc...

Variation-aware dynamic voltage/frequency scaling
Fine-grained dynamic voltage/frequency scaling (DVFS) is an important tool in managing the balance between power and performance in chip-multiprocessors. Although manufacturing pr...
