2. 1. Performance Modeling of Multi-core Systems : Caches and Locks

   Author : Xiaoyue Pan; Bengt Jonsson; David Whalley; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; performance modeling; performance analysis; multi-core; cache; lock;

   Abstract : Performance is an important aspect of computer systems since it directly affects user experience. One way to analyze and predict performance is via performance modeling. In recent years, multi-core systems have made processors more powerful while keeping power consumption relatively low. READ MORE

4. 2. Iron Age Keys, Locks, and Chests: Exploring Locking Practices and Social Identities at Birka, Helgö, Lovö, Sanda, and Vallhagar

   Author : Emma Nordström; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Arkeologi; Archaeology; Nycklar; Keys; Lås; Locks; Kistor; Chests; Låsande; Locking practices; Sociala identiteter; Social identities; Järnålder; Iron Age; Vikingatid; Viking Age;

   Abstract : The use of keys, locks, and chests in the Scandinavian Iron Age is a subject overshadowed by the assumed connection between keys and the housewife with her administrative role on the farm. The key is sometimes even seen as the very symbol of this role. READ MORE

5. 3. Dynamic Adaptations of Synchronization Granularity in Concurrent Data Structures

   Author : Kjell Winblad; Konstantinos Sagonas; Erez Petrank; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; concurrent data structures; contention adapting; range queries; lock-freedom; adaptivity; linearizability; ordered sets; maps; key-value stores; concurrent priority queues; relaxed concurrent data structures; locks; delegation locking; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : The multicore revolution means that programmers have many cores at their disposal in everything from phones to large server systems. Concurrent data structures are needed to make good use of all the cores. Designing a concurrent data structure that performs well across many different scenarios is a difficult task. READ MORE

6. 4. Reactive Concurrent Data Structures and Algorithms for Synchronization

   Author : Phuong Ha; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-blocking; reactive; multi-word atomic primitives; online algorithms; shared memory; concurrent data structures; distributed data structures; randomization; online financial problems; synchronization; spin-locks;

   Abstract : Parallelism plays a significant role in high-performance computing systems, from large clusters of computers to chip-multithreading (CMT) processors. Performance of the parallel systems comes not only from concurrently runningmore processing hardware but also from utilizing the hardware efficiently. READ MORE
