Nonblocking Memory Refresh
… static/background refresh in SRAM. Our proposed Nonblocking Refresh works by refreshing a portion of the data in a memory block at a time and uses redundant data, such as Reed-Solomon codes, in the block to compute the block's refreshing/unreadable data to satisfy read requests. For proof of …

Nonblocking packet switching with shift-register rings
This research investigates packet switching with gigabit-per-second ports for integrated broadband services. The Pulsar switch design is based on a fast word-parallel shift-register ring, and it is a platform for studying the fundamentals of packet switching.

Design and Implementation of a Nonblocking Randomized Work Stealing Scheduler
… presents FLCN (Free of Locks, Cilk is Now), a nonblocking work-stealing runtime scheduler that supports Cilk multithreaded programming. The existing OpenCilk runtime system uses lock-based synchronization and thus suffers from lock contention, does not provide progress guarantees, and can …

Performance of a ATM Lan switching fabric
… is proposed. This is an architecture for nonblocking performance, no congestion and high reliability. Its principle for performance is a method of sequentially scheduling the inputs and the transferring of bits in parallel. To study the performance of the switching fabric architecture one …

Architectural study of high-speed networks with optical bypassing
… of routes and wavelengths. Adopting a nonblocking formulation, we assume that the basic traffic unit is a wavelength, and the traffic matrix changes from time to time but always belongs to a given traffic set.

Safety verification and control for collision avoidance at road intersections
… and prove that it ensures safety and is nonblocking, another major challenge of verification-based algorithms. We validate the supervisor using computer simulations and experiments.

Fault tolerance in parallel data processing systems
… of the approach reduces restarts and works in a nonblocking manner. The introduced ephemeral materialization points hold intermediate data in memory while monitoring the running job. This monitoring enables the system to choose the sweet spots for materialization. At the same time, the …

Development of a Supervisory Control System as a Transition Technology Towards Autonomous Reactor Plant Operations
… discrete event systems (DES). Properties such as nonblocking and controllability can be formally demonstrated and verified by leveraging the extensive set of mathematical proofs within the scope of regular languages. Furthermore, a DES can be directly linked to reactor plant systems and …

Symmetric rearrangeable networks and algorithms
A class of symmetric rearrangeable nonblocking networks has been considered in this thesis. A particular focus of this thesis is on Benes networks built with 2 x 2 switching elements. Symmetric rearrangeable networks built with larger switching elements have also being considered. New applications …

On Conflicts in Concurrent Systems
This dissertation studies conflicts. A conflict is a bug in concurrent systems where one or more components of the system may potentially be blocked from completing their task. This dissertation investigates how nonconflicting completions may be used to characterise the situations in which …

Cache design exploration in a general purpose massively parallel architecture
Memory model design is a major part of any modern processor architecture. There are many design choices and tradeoffs to be considered, and these often need to be tightly coupled to the processing unit's arcitecure. The increased popularity of massively parallel architectures has motivated …
