Balasubramonian, Rajeev | MemZip: exploring unconventional benefits from memory compression | Memory compression has been proposed and deployed in the past to grow the capacity of a memory system and reduce page fault rates. Compression also has secondary benefits: it can reduce energy and bandwidth demands. However, most prior mechanisms have been designed to focus on the capacity metric an... | | 2014-01-01 |

Stoller, Leigh B. | Message passing support in the Avalanche widget | Minimizing communication latency in message passing multiprocessing systems is critical. An emerging problem in these systems is the latency contribution costs caused by the need to percolate the message through the memory hierarchy (at both sending and receiving nodes) and the additional cost of ma... | Avalanche widget; Message passing; Cache coherence; Message copying; Cache miss rates; Computer memory | 1996 |

Freire, Juliana | MetaComm: a meta-directory for telecommunications | A great deal of corporate data is buried in network devices - such as PBX messaging/email platforms, and data networking equipment - where it is difficult to access and modify. Typically, the data is only available to the device itself for its internal purposes and it must be administered using eith... | MetaComm; Meta-Directories; Directory Enabled Networking; Data integration | 2000 |

Balasubramonian, Rajeev | Microarchitectural techniques to reduce interconnect power in clustered processors | The paper presents a preliminary evaluation of novel techniques that address a growing problem - power dissipation in on-chip interconnects. Recent studies have shown that around 50% of the dynamic power consumption in modern processors is within on-chip interconnects.

Susarla, Sai R.; Carter, John | Middleware support for locality-aware wide area replication | Coherent wide-area data caching can improve the scalability and responsiveness of distributed services such as wide-area file access, database and directory services, and content distribution. However, distributed services differ widely in the frequency of read/write sharing, the amount of conten... | Wide-area data caching; Distributed services | 2004-11-18 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Migrating relational data to an OODB: strategies and lessions from a molecular biology experience | The growing maturity of OODB technology is causing many enterprises to consider migrating relational databases to OODBs. While data remapping is relatively straightforward, greater challenges lie in economically and non-invasively adapting legacy application software. We report on a genetics labora... | OODB; Relational data; Data migration | 1997 |

Cohen, Elaine | Minimum distance queries for polygonal and parametric models | Calculation of the minimum distance to a geometric object or the minimum separation between objects is a fundamental problem that has application in a variety of arenas. Minimum separation queries for sculptured surfaces are believed particularly difficult, yet are increasingly important as modeli... | Minimum separation; Minimum distance; Virtual prototyping | 1997 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Modularity meets inheritance | We "unbundle" several roles of classes in existing languages, by providing a suite of operators independently controlling such effects as combination, modification, encapsulation, name resolution, and sharing, all on the single notion of module.
