16. Hiding and Reducing Memory Latency : Energy-Efficient Pipeline and Memory System Techniques
Abstract : Memory accesses in modern processors are both far slower and vastly more energy-expensive than the actual computations. To improve performance, processors spend a significant amount of energy and resources trying to hide and reduce the memory latency. READ MORE

17. Memory modeling and synthesis for real-time video processing systems
Abstract : In this thesis, a new design methodology and new tools for modeling and synthesis of real-time video processing systems are presented. A real-time video processing system is a system that performs computations on a continuous sequence of images. Image processing is a memory intensive application. READ MORE

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

19. Static Timing Analysis of Parallel Systems Using Abstract Execution
Abstract : The Power Wall has stopped the past trend of increasing processor throughput by increasing the clock frequency and the instruction level parallelism.Therefore, the current trend in computer hardware design is to expose explicit parallelism to the software level. READ MORE

20. The Impact of Application and Architecture Properties on Real-Time Multiprocessor Scheduling
Abstract : Guaranteeing the temporal correctness of a real-time system is a very challenging problem since application and architecture properties may be hard to model accurately. For example, modern computer architectures are typically equipped with mechanisms, such as cache memories and instruction pipelines, whose behavior are by nature stochastic. READ MORE
