Virtualization poses new challenges to I/O performance. The single-root I/O virtualization
(SR-IOV) standard allows an I/O device to be shared by multiple Virtual Machines (VMs) …

This paper explores the trade-offs between on-loaded versus offloaded network stack
processing for systems with varying CPU frequencies. This study explores the differences of …

Efficient temperature estimation is vital for designing thermally efficient, lower power and
robust integrated circuits in nanometer regime. Thermal simulation based on the detailed …

The fingerprint sensor is a sensor that detects fingerprints using an optical system, where
detection is done by reading the contours of the fingerprints and the static electricity of the …

Accurate runtime power estimation is important for on-line thermal/power regulation on
today's high performance processors. In this paper, we introduce a power calibration …

This paper reports a systematic approach for detecting software defects in multicast protocol
implementations. We deploy a fault-oriented methodology and an integrated test system …

The miniaturization of CMOS technology has reached a scale at which server processors
are starting to integrate multi-gigabit network interface controllers (NIC). While transistors are …

The aim of this project is to develop a tiny and flexible hardware TCP/IP module. The module
is so autonomous and so lightweight that can fits in low cost FPGA. In this project, the …

This paper proposes a new approach for making logging an efficient mechanism within the
software development lifecycle from the design to the maintenance phase. Our approach …

Abstract Design and verification of today's nanometer very-large-scale integrated (VLSI)
system remain a very challenging problem. For instance, the sub-90-nm technology has …
