Efficient Software-Based Fault Isolation
, 1993
"... One way to provide fault isolation among cooperating software modules is to place each in its own address space. However, for tightly-coupled modules, this solution incurs prohibitive context switch overhead, In this paper, we present a software approach to implementing fault isolation within a sing ..."

to an address outside its fault domain. Both these software operations are portable and programming language independent. Our approach poses a tradeoff relative to hardware fault isolation: substantially faster communication between fault domains, at a cost of slightly increased execution time for distrusted
A Pairwise Key Pre-Distribution Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks
, 2003
"... this paper, we provide a framework in which to study the security of key pre-distribution schemes, propose a new key pre-distribution scheme which substantially improves the resilience of the network compared to previous schemes, and give an in-depth analysis of our scheme in terms of network resili ..."

Simultaneous Multithreading: Maximizing On-Chip Parallelism
, 1995
"... This paper examines simultaneous multithreading, a technique permitting several independent threads to issue instructions to a superscalar’s multiple functional units in a single cycle. We present several models of simultaneous multithreading and compare them with alternative organizations: a wide s ..."

is an attractive alternative to single-chip multiprocessors; simultaneous multithreaded processors with a variety of organizations outperform corresponding conventional multiprocessors with similar execution resources. While simultaneous multithreading has excellent potential to increase processor utilization
Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs.
- Nucleic Acids Res.
, 1997
"... ABSTRACT The BLAST programs are widely used tools for searching protein and DNA databases for sequence similarities. For protein comparisons, a variety of definitional, algorithmic and statistical refinements described here permits the execution time of the BLAST programs to be decreased substantia ..."

Concurrent Constraint Programming
, 1993
"... This paper presents a new and very rich class of (con-current) programming languages, based on the notion of comput.ing with parhal information, and the con-commitant notions of consistency and entailment. ’ In this framework, computation emerges from the inter-action of concurrently executing agent ..."

An Analysis of TCP Processing Overhead
- IEEE Communications Magazine
, 1989
"... networks, have been getting faster, perceived throughput at the application has not always increased accordingly. Various performance bottlenecks have been encountered, each of which has to be analyzed and corrected. One aspect of networking often suspected of contributing to low throughput is the t ..."

is the transport layer of the protocol suite. This layer, especially in connectionless protocols, has considerable functionality, and is typically executed in software by the host processor at the end points of the network. It is thus a likely source of processing overhead. While this theory is appealing, a
Lottery Scheduling: Flexible Proportional-Share Resource Management
, 1994
"... This paper presents lottery scheduling, a novel randomized resource allocation mechanism. Lottery scheduling provides efficient, responsive control over the relative execution rates of computations. Such control is beyond the capabilities of conventional schedulers, and is desirable in systems that ..."

Scheduler Activations: Effective Kernel Support for the User-Level Management of Parallelism
- ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
, 1992
"... Threads are the vehicle,for concurrency in many approaches to parallel programming. Threads separate the notion of a sequential execution stream from the other aspects of traditional UNIX-like processes, such as address spaces and I/O descriptors. The objective of this separation is to make the expr ..."

The Paradyn Parallel Performance Measurement Tools
- IEEE COMPUTER
, 1995
"... Paradyn is a performance measurement tool for parallel and distributed programs. Paradyn uses several novel technologies so that it scales to long running programs (hours or days) and large (thousand node) systems, and automates much of the search for performance bottlenecks. It can provide precise ..."

performance data down to the procedure and statement level. Paradyn is based on a dynamic notion of performance instrumentation and measurement. Unmodified executable files are placed into execution and then performance instrumentation is inserted into the application program and modified during execution
