A number of resource-intensive applications, such as augmented reality, natural language
processing, object recognition, and multimedia-based software are pushing the …

Dynamic binary translation (DBT) is a core technology to many important applications such
as system virtualization, dynamic binary instrumentation and security. However, there are …

The emergence of new architectures create a recurring challenge to ensure that existing
programs still work on them. Manually porting legacy code is often impractical. Static binary …

Kernel concurrency bugs are notoriously difficult to find during testing since they are only
triggered under certain instruction interleavings. Unfortunately, no tools for systematically …

This paper presents Manifold, an open-source parallel simulation framework for multicore
architectures. It consists of a parallel simulation kernel, a set of microarchitecture …

The architecture design of peta-scale computing systems is complex and presents lots of
difficulties to designs, as current tools lack support for relevant features of future scenarios …

As industrial demands grows for modeling, simulation and exploration tools during SoC
design, there is a need for simulated CPU models that work with the other tools in the space …

Speed, portability and correctness have traditionally been the main requirements for
dynamic binary translation (DBT) systems. Given the increasing availability of multi-core …

Over the past 20 years, we have witnessed a widespread adoption of dynamic binary
instrumentation (DBI) for numerous program analyses and security applications including …

Dynamic Binary Translation (DBT) is a powerful approach to support cross-architecture
emulation of unmodified binaries. However, DBT systems face correctness and performance …
