Architectural explorations for streaming accelerators with customized memory layouts
Shafiq, Muhammad (Date of defense: 2012-05-21)
El concepto básico de la arquitectura mono-nucleo en los procesadores de propósito general se ajusta bien a un modelo de programación secuencial. La integración de multiples núcleos en un solo chip ha permitido a los ...
Cross-layer optimization in optical networks
Angelou, Marianna (Date of defense: 2012-04-16)
Network planning and operation in core optical networks require processes that lead to a cost-effective network able to effectively accommodate the given traffic demands. Crosslayer techniques that exploit information ...
Opportunistic routing in wireless mesh networks
Darehshoorzadeh, Amir (Date of defense: 2012-07-23)
Advances in communication and networking technologies are rapidly making ubiquitous network connectivity a reality. In recent years, Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have already become very popular and been receiving an ...
Software caching techniques and hardware optimizations for on-chip local memories
Vujic, Nikola (Date of defense: 2012-06-05)
Despite the fact that the most viable L1 memories in processors are caches, on-chip local memories have been a great topic of consideration lately. Local memories are an interesting design option due to their many benefits: ...
Efficient algorithms for passive network measurement
Sanjuàs Cuxart, Josep (Date of defense: 2012-03-23)
Network monitoring has become a necessity to aid in the management and operation of large networks. Passive network monitoring consists of extracting metrics (or any information of interest) by analyzing the traffic that ...
Adaptive memory hierarchies for next generation tiled microarchitectures
Herrero Abellanas, Enric (Date of defense: 2011-07-05)
Les últimes dècades el rendiment dels processadors i de les memòries ha millorat a diferent ritme, limitant el rendiment dels processadors i creant el conegut memory gap. Sol·lucionar aquesta diferència de rendiment és un ...
Multifaceted resource management on virtualized providers
Goiri, Íñigo (Date of defense: 2011-06-14)
Last decade, providers started using Virtual Machines (VMs) in their datacenters to pack users and their applications. This was a good way to consolidate multiple users in fewer physical nodes while isolating them from ...
Architectural support for high-performing hardware transactional memory systems
Lupon Navazo, Marc (Date of defense: 2011-12-23)
Parallel programming presents an efficient solution to exploit future multicore processors. Unfortunately, traditional programming models depend on programmer’s skills for synchronizing concurrent threads, which makes ...
Managing dynamic non-uiform cache architectures
Lira Rueda, Javier (Date of defense: 2011-11-25)
Researchers from both academia and industry agree that future CMPs will accommodate large shared on-chip last-level caches. However, the exponential increase in multicore processor cache sizes accompanied by growing on-chip ...
GMPLS-OBS interoperability and routing acalability in internet
Mendoça Pedroso, Pedro Miguel (Date of defense: 2011-12-16)
The popularization of Internet has turned the telecom world upside down over the last two decades. Network operators, vendors and service providers are being challenged to adapt themselves to Internet requirements in a way ...
A Multi-core processor for hard real-time systems
Paolieri, Marco (Date of defense: 2011-11-04)
The increasing demand for new functionalities in current and future hard real-time embedded systems, like the ones deployed in automotive and avionics industries, is driving an increment in the performance required in ...
Programming, debugging, profiling and optimizing transactional memory programs
Hasanov Zyulkyarov, Ferard (Date of defense: 2011-07-19)
Transactional memory (TM) is a new optimistic synchronization technique which has the potential of making shared memory parallel programming easier compared to locks without giving up from the performance. This thesis ...
