Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) combine hardware reconfigurability with a high degree of parallelism. Consequently, FPGAs offer performance gains and power savings for many applications. A recent trend has been to leverage the hardware versatility o ...
Microcontroller systems operating at low supply voltage in near- or sub-threshold regime suffer both from increased effects of PVT (Process, Voltage, Temperature) variation and from a larger share of leakage on overall power due to the reduced frequency. W ...
Caching the results of intermediate query results for future re-use is a common technique for improving the performance of analytics over raw data sources. An important design choice in this regard is whether to lazily cache only the offsets of satisfying ...
The performance monitoring of computer systems is a complex affair, made even more challenging by the increasing gap between hardware and software. Methods that collect and feed data to performance analysis can usually be classified into one of two groups. ...
Modern operating systems create ephemeral virtual-to-physical mappings for a variety of purposes, ranging from the implementation of interprocess communication to the implementation of process tracing and debugging. With succeeding generations of processor ...
