Automatic Translation of FORTRAN Programs to Vector Form
- ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems
, 1987
"... This paper discusses the theoretical concepts underlying a project at Rice University to develop an automatic translator, called PFC (for Parallel FORTRAN Converter), from FORTRAN to FORTRAN 8x. The Rice project, based initially upon the research of Kuck and others at the University of Illinois [6, ..."

Other projects that have influenced our work are the Texas Instruments ASC compiler [9, 33], the Cray-1 FORTRAN compiler [15], and the Massachusetts Computer Associates Vectorizer [22, 25]. The paper is organized into seven sections. Section 2 introduces FORTRAN 8x and gives examples of its use
Queue Response to Input Correlation Functions: Continuous Spectral Analysis
- IEEE/ACM Trans. Networking
, 1993
"... This paper, together with [1] and [2], opens a new window for the study of queueing performance in a richer, heterogeneous input environment. It offers a unique way to understand the effect of second- and higher-order input statistics on queues, and develops new concepts of traffic measurement, netw ..."

Abstract 1 – In this paper, we propose a new class of branch predictors, complementary branch predictors, which can be easily added to any branch predictor to improve the overall prediction accuracy. This mechanism differs from conventional branch predictors in that it focuses only on mispredicted branches. As a result, this mechanism has the advantages of scalability and flexibility (can be implemented with any branch predictor), but is not on the critical path. More specifically, this mechanism improves the branch prediction accuracy by predicting which future branch will be mispredicted next and when that will occur, and then it changes the predicted direction at the predicted time. Our results show that a branch predictor with the branch misprediction predictor achieves the same prediction accuracy as a conventional branch predictor that is 4 to 16 times larger, but without significantly increasing the overall complexity or lengthening the critical path.

A Practical Soft Type System for Scheme
- In Proceedings of the 1994 ACM Conference on LISP and Functional Programming
, 1993
"... Soft type systems provide the benefits of static type checking for dynamically typed languages without rejecting untypable programs. A soft type checker infers types for variables and expressions and inserts explicit run-time checks to transform untypable programs to typable form. We describe a prac ..."
