The increasing popularity of cloud computing has forced cloud providers to build economies
of scale to meet the growing demand. Nowadays, data-centers include thousands of …

The Last Level Cache (LLC) plays a key role in the system performance of current multi-cores
by reducing the number of long latency main memory accesses. The inter-application …

Multithreaded latency-critical applications represent an important subset of workloads
running on public cloud systems. Most of these systems deploy powerful computing servers …

Cloud systems deploy a wide variety of shared resources and host a large number of tenant
applications. To perform cloud research, a small experimental platform is commonly used, …

The microarchitecture of general-purpose processors is continuously evolving to adapt to
the new computation and memory demands of incoming workloads. In this regard, new …

Resource sharing is a major concern in current multicore processors. Among the shared
system resources, the Last Level Cache (LLC) is one of the most critical, since destructive …

Research on resource management focuses on optimizing system performance and energy
efficiency by distributing shared resources like processor cores, caches, and main memory …

A fast algorithm to detect motion in the compressed domain for video surveillance is presented.
The algorithm partially decompresses the video bit stream and performs motion detection …

Graph processing is increasingly adopted to solve problems that span many application
domains, including scientific computing, social networks, and big-data analytics. These …

The aim of this paper is to analyse the early stages of banking supervision in Spain,
implemented between the second half of the nineteenth century and the first third of the twentieth …
