Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | A correctness criterion for asynchronous circuit validation and optimization | We propose a new relation C. called strong conformance in the context of Dill's trace theory, and define B Q A to be true exactly when B conforms to A and the success set of B contains the success set of A. When B C. A, module B operated in module A's maximal environment AM (i.e. B || AM) exhibits a... | Validation; Optimization | 1992 |

Mathew, Binu K.; Davis, Al | A characterization of visual feature recognition | Natural human interfaces are a key to realizing the dream of ubiquitous computing. This implies that embedded systems must be capable of sophisticated perception tasks. This paper analyzes the nature of a visual feature recognition workload. Visual feature recognition is a key component of a numb... | Visual feature recognition; Human interfaces | 2003-09-03 |

Brunvand, Erik L. | A case for increased operating system support in chip multi-processors | We identify the operating system as one area where a novel architecture could significantly improve on current chip multi-processor designs, allowing increased performance and improved power efficiency. We first show that the operating system contributes a non-trivial overhead to even the most com... | 2005 | |

Davis, Alan L. | A characterization of parallel systems | a taxonomy for parallel processing systems is presented which has some advantages over previous taxonomies. The taxonomy characterizes parallel processing systems using four parameters: topology, communication, granularity, and operation. These parameters and used repetitively in a hierarchical fash... | Parallel systems | 1980 |

Evans, John | A distributed object-oriented graphical programming system | This report presents the design of a distributed parallel object system (DPOS) and its implementation using a graphical editing interface. DPOS brings together concepts of object-oriented programming and graphical programming with aspects of modern functional languages. Programs are defined as netwo... | Distributed parallel object system; DPOS | 1990 |

Brunvand, Erik L. | A comparison of modular self-timed design styles | State-machine sequencing methods in modular 2-phase and 4-phase asynchronous handshake control are compared. Design styles are discussed, and the sequencers are tested against each other using a medium-scale minicomputer test design implemented in FPGAs. Seven 4-phase sequencers are tested. In these... | Self-timed; State-machine sequencing; Asynchronous handshake control | 1995 |

Zhang, Lixin | A comparison of online superpage promotion mechanisms | The amount of data that a typical translation lookaside buffer (TLB) can map has not kept pace with the growth in cache sizes and application footprints. As a result, the cost of handling TLB misses limits the performance of an increasing number of applications. The use of superpages, multiple adjac... | Superpages; Translation lookaside buffer; TLB | 1999 |

Carter, John B. | A comparison of software and hardware synchronization mechanisms for distributed shared memory multiprocessors | Efficient synchronization is an essential component of parallel computing. The designers of traditional multiprocessors have included hardware support only for simple operations such as compare-and-swap and load-linked/store-conditional, while high level synchronization primitives such as locks, bar... | Hardware locks | 1996 |
