Assessing the influence of geological and land-use gradients on zooplankton and phytoplankton biodiversity in the land between ecotone
The Land Between (TLB) is an ecotone in south-central Ontario that represents a transition from limestone-dominated bedrock to granite-dominated bedrock, creating notable calcium and land-use gradients across this unique geographic region. The goal of this study was to investigate water quality and …

Presidents and Terminal Logic Behavior: Term Limits and Executive Action In the United States, Brazil, and Argentina
… call in this research, Terminal Logic Behavior (TLB). I hypothesize that an executive term structure that sets a fixed number of allowable terms generates a policy continuity problem. More precisely, a term structure that bans reelection causes presidents to be inconsistent in their valuation of …

Scaling address-space operations on Linux with TSX
… scale in Linux. This thesis also describes a new TLB shootdown algorithm, TxShootDown, which removes TLB shootdown from a transactional critical section while avoiding races due to concurrent address-space operations.

Digital-Based Zero-Current Switching (ZCS) Control Schemes for Three-Level Boost Power-Factor Correction (PFC) Converter
… boost-family PFC topologies, three-level boost (TLB) converter has generated considerable research interest in high-voltage high-power applications. It is mainly due to the fact that the topology can have halved component voltage stresses, improved waveform qualities and electromagnetic …

Evaluation and Performance Optimization of Virtual Memory Support for GPUs
… των αστοχιών στην Κρυφή Μνήμη Μεταφράσεων (TLB). Ενώ οι σύγχρονες GPUs της NVIDIA υποστηρίζουν πολλαπλά μεγέθη σελίδων στο υλικό για να μετριάσουν αυτό το φαινόμενο, μέσω της εξισορρόπησης της εμβέλειας του TLB και του εσωτερικού κατακερματισμού, αυτή η δυνατότητα είναι κρυφή από τους …

Arm systems semantics
… the system semantics, of address translation and TLB maintenance, instruction-fetch and its required cache maintenance, and exceptions and interrupts, remains mostly obscure, leaving us without a solid foundation for verification of security-critical systems software. We develop precise …

Mondriaan memory protection
… to a single translation value and cached in the TLB. MMP stores protection information in tables in protected system memory, just as paging hardware stores translation information in page tables. MMP is well suited to improve the robustness of modern software. Modern software development favors …

Performance Modeling and Prediction for the Scalable Solution of Partial Differential Equations on Unstructured Grids
… in terms of translation lookaside buffer (TLB) and data cache miss rates, achieved memory bandwidth, and graduated floating point instructions per memory reference, is provided through accurate measurements with hardware counters. The performance models and experimental results motivate …

Decoding Leadership Signals: Intersectional Perceptions of Agency, Communion, and Transformational Leadership Behaviors
… whether transformational leadership behaviors (TLBs) are evaluated equitably across leader race and gender by examining the social signals these behaviors convey. Specifically, the studies explore whether TLBs are interpreted as agentic or communal signals, and whether these interpretations …

Efficient Virtual Cache Coherency for Multi-core Systems and Accelerators
… the behaviour of translation lookaside buffers (TLBs). This is then extended to provide fast cycle-level simulator. The simulator employs an innovative technique to combine binary translation with cycle-level simulation and therefore significantly speedup the simulation process compared to …

Impact of Increased Cache Misses on Runtime Performance of MPX-enabled Programs
Low level languages like C and C++ provide high performance and direct control over memory management. But these languages are prone to memory safety violations. Intel introduced a new ISA extension-Memory Protection Extension(MPX), a hardware-assisted full-stack solution, to protect against the …

The geothermal potential of Luxembourg
… of the Mesozoic Trier–Luxembourg Basin (TLB) is reviewed and updated using recently published information on the geology and structures as well as borehole data available in Luxembourg and the adjoining regions. A Bouguer map is used to get insight in the depth, morphology and structures …

Characterization of containers in emerging applications: Microservices, FAAS and GPUS
Containers have enabled new computing paradigms such as Functions-as-a- Service in data centers today. Containers are inherently more lightweight than virtual machines. This is caused by the fact that containers share the kernel with the host system, removing the need for a two-dimensional page …

Cost-effective Designs for Supporting Correct Execution and Scalable Performance in Many-core Processors
… the regular cache coherence protocol, such that TLBs participate in the cache coherence protocol similar to instruction or data caches. We evaluate snooping and directory UNITD coherence protocols on processors with up to 16 cores and demonstrate that UNITD reduces the performance penalty of …
