Conventional wisdom holds that an efficient interface between an OS running on a CPU and a high-bandwidth I/O device should use Direct Memory Access (DMA) to offload data transfer, descriptor rings for buffering and queuing, and interrupts…

For high throughput applications, turbo-like iterative decoders are implemented with parallel architectures. However, to be efficient parallel architectures require to avoid collision accesses i.e. concurrent read/write accesses should not…

Multi-core architectures can be leveraged to allow independent processes to run in parallel. However, due to resources shared across cores, such as caches, distinct processes may interfere with one another, e.g. affecting execution time.…

Memory interference may heavily inflate task execution times in Heterogeneous Systems-on-Chips (HeSoCs). Knowing worst-case interference is consequently fundamental for supporting the correct execution of time-sensitive applications. In…

We address the optimization of the sum rate performance in multicell interference-limited singlehop networks where access points are allowed to cooperate in terms of joint resource allocation. The resource allocation policies considered…

Reading and writing memory are, besides computation, the most common operations a processor performs. The correctness of these operations is therefore essential for the proper execution of any program. However, as soon as fault attacks are…

Previous approaches to systematic state-space exploration for testing multi-threaded programs have proposed context-bounding and depth-bounding to be effective ranking algorithms for testing multithreaded programs. This paper proposes two…

The growing need for continuous processing capabilities has led to the development of multicore systems with a complex cache hierarchy. Such multicore systems are generally designed for improving the performance in average case, while hard…

This paper focuses on the analysis of real-time non preemptive multiprocessor scheduling with precedence and several latency constraints. It aims to specify a schedulability condition which enables a designer to check a priori -without…

The increasing number of threads inside the cores of a multicore processor, and competitive access to the shared cache memory, become the main reasons for an increased number of competitive cache misses and performance decline. Inevitably,…

We study the problem of scheduling jobs on fault-prone machines communicating via a shared channel, also known as multiple-access channel. We have $n$ arbitrary length jobs to be scheduled on $m$ identical machines, $f$ of which are prone…

In this paper, we identify that memory performance plays a crucial role in the feasibility and effectiveness for performing denial-of-service attacks on shared cache. Based on this insight, we introduce new cache DoS attacks, which can be…

This paper investigates the problem of single-source multicasting over a communication network in the presence of restricted adversaries. When the adversary is constrained to operate only on a prescribed subset of edges, classical cut-set…

Many modern workloads such as neural network inference and graph processing are fundamentally memory-bound. For such workloads, data movement between memory and CPU cores imposes a significant overhead in terms of both latency and energy. A…

Poor time predictability of multicore processors has been a long-standing challenge in the real-time systems community. In this paper, we make a case that a fundamental problem that prevents efficient and predictable real-time computing on…

In modern heterogeneous architectures, the access to data that the application needs is a key factor, in order to make the compute task efficient, in terms of power dissipation and execution time. The new generation SoCs are equipped with…

A modern GPU aims to simultaneously execute more warps for higher Thread-Level Parallelism (TLP) and performance. When generating many memory requests, however, warps contend for limited cache space and thrash cache, which in turn severely…

In this paper we investigate the feasibility of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks on shared caches in multicore platforms. With carefully engineered attacker tasks, we are able to cause more than 300X execution time increases on a victim task…

Approximate capacity regions are established for a class of interfering multiple access channels consisting of two multiple-access channels (MACs), each with an arbitrary number of transmitters, with one transmitter in each MAC causing…

General trends in computer architecture are shifting more towards parallelism. Multicore architectures have proven to be a major step in processor evolution. With the advancement in multicore architecture, researchers are focusing on…
