  2. 1. Efficient Memory Modeling During Simulation and Native Execution

    Author : Nikos Nikoleris; Erik Hagersten; Lieven Eeckhout; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; performance analysis; cache performance; multicore performance; memory system; memory bandwidth; memory contention; performance prediction; multi-threading; multiprocessing systems; program diagnostics; commodity multicores; multithreaded program resource requirements; performance counters; scalability bottleneck; scalability improvement; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Application performance on computer processors depends on a number of complex architectural and microarchitectural design decisions. Consequently, computer architects rely on performance modeling to improve future processors without building prototypes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Securing Interactive Systems

    Author : Willard Thor Rafnsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; program analysis; concurrency; multi-threading; covert channels; semantics-based security; language-based security; information-flow security; runtime enforcement; parallelism; scheduling; program transformation; information-flow control; fairness;

    Abstract : This thesis provides means to achieve end-to-end information-flow security in interactive systems. The elusiveness of this problem stems from the fact that interaction patterns, primitives, synchronous communication and nondeterminism combine in ways where seemingly innocuous systems compromise security in unexpected ways under interaction.

  6. 4. Towards Low-Complexity Scalable Shared-Memory Architectures

    Author : Håkan Zeffer; Erik Hagersten; John Carter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; shared memory; distributed shared memory; hardware-software trade-off; software coherence; coherence profiling; remote access cache; chip multiprocessor; simultaneous multi threading; simulation; workload characterization; statistical cache model; Computer engineering; Datorteknik;

    Abstract : Plentiful research has addressed low-complexity software-based shared-memory systems since the idea was first introduced more than two decades ago. However, software-coherent systems have not been very successful in the commercial marketplace. We believe there are two main reasons for this: lack of performance and/or lack of binary compatibility. READ MORE

  7. 5. Performance Characterization of In-Memory Data Analytics on a Scale-up Server

    Author : Ahsan Javed Awan; Mats Brorsson; Vladimir Vlassov; Eduard Ayguade; Boris Grot; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : The sheer increase in volume of data over the last decade has triggered research in cluster computing frameworks that enable web enterprises to extract big insights from big data. While Apache Spark defines the state of the art in big data analytics platforms for (i) exploiting data-flow and in-memory computing and (ii) for exhibiting superior scale-out performance on the commodity machines, little effort has been devoted at understanding the performance of in-memory data analytics with Spark on modern scale-up servers.
