1. Methods for Creating and Exploiting Data Locality
Abstract : The gap between processor speed and memory latency has led to the use of caches in the memory systems of modern computers. Programs must use the caches efficiently and exploit data locality for maximum performance. READ MORE

2. Packet Order Matters! : Improving Application Performance by Deliberately Delaying Packets
Abstract : Data-centers increasingly deploy commodity servers with high-speed network interfaces to enable low-latency communication. However, achieving low latency at high data rates crucially depends on how the incoming traffic interacts with the system's caches. When packets that need to be processed in the same way are consecutive, i.e. READ MORE

3. Exploiting data locality in adaptive architectures
Abstract : The speed of processors increases much faster than the memory access time. This makes memory accesses expensive. To meet this problem, cache hierarchies are introduced to serve the processor with data. However, the effectiveness of caches depends on the amount of locality in the application's memory access pattern. READ MORE

4. Methods for run time analysis of data locality
Abstract : The growing gap between processor clock speed and DRAM access time puts new demands on software and development tools. Deep memory hierarchies and high cache miss penalties in present and emerging computer systems make execution time sensitive to data locality. READ MORE

5. Computational and spatial analyses of rooftops for urban solar energy planning
Abstract : In cities where land availability is limited, rooftop photovoltaic panels (RPVs) offer high potential for satisfying concentrated urban energy demand by using only rooftop areas. However, accurate estimation of RPVs potential in relation to their spatial distribution is indispensable for successful energy planning. READ MORE
