In this paper, we proposed an effective and efficient multi-core shared-cache design optimization approach based on reuse-distance analysis of the data traces of target applications. Since data traces are independent of system hardware architectures, a designer can easily compute the best cache design at the early system design phase using our approach. We devise a very efficient and yet accurate method to derive the aggregated reuse-distance histograms of concurrent applications for accurate cache performance analysis and optimization. Essentially, the actual shared-cache contention results of concurrent applications are embedded in the aggregated reuse-distance histograms and therefore the approach is very effective. The experimental results show that the average error rate of shared-cache miss-count estimations of our approach is less than 2.4%. Using a simple scanning search method, one can easily determine the true optimal cache configurations at the early system design phase.

Performance modeling of parallel applications on multicore computers remains a challenge in computational co-design due to the complex design of multicore processors including private and shared memory hierarchies. We present a Scalable Analytical Sh
ared Memory Model to predict the performance of parallel applications that runs on a multicore computer and shares the same level of cache in the hierarchy. This model uses a computationally efficient, probabilistic method to predict the reuse distance profiles, where reuse distance is a hardware architecture-independent measure of the patterns of virtual memory accesses. It relies on a stochastic, static basic block-level analysis of reuse profiles measured from the memory traces of applications ran sequentially on small instances rather than using a multi-threaded trace. The results indicate that the hit-rate predictions on the shared cache are accurate.
We present a hierarchical simulation approach for the dependability analysis and evaluation of a highly available commercial cache-based RAID storage system. The archi-tecture is complex and includes several layers of overlap-ping error detection and
recovery mechanisms. Three ab-straction levels have been developed to model the cache architecture, cache operations, and error detection and recovery mechanism. The impact of faults and errors oc-curring in the cache and in the disks is analyzed at each level of the hierarchy. A simulation submodel is associated with each abstraction level. The models have been devel-oped using DEPEND, a simulation-based environment for system-level dependability analysis, which provides facili-ties to inject faults into a functional behavior model, to simulate error detection and recovery mechanisms, and to evaluate quantitative measures. Several fault models are defined for each submodel to simulate cache component failures, disk failures, transmission errors, and data errors in the cache memory and in the disks. Some of the parame-ters characterizing fault injection in a given submodel cor-respond to probabilities evaluated from the simulation of the lower-level submodel. Based on the proposed method-ology, we evaluate and analyze 1) the system behavior un-der a real workload and high error rate (focusing on error bursts), 2) the coverage of the error detection mechanisms implemented in the system and the error latency distribu-tions, and 3) the accumulation of errors in the cache and in the disks.
We present a revised distance to the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant of $725pm15$ pc based on Gaia Early Data Release 3 parallax measurements (EDR3) for several stars previously found to be located either inside or behind the supernova based on the pre
sence of high-velocity absorption lines in their spectra. This revised distance estimate and error means the Cygnus Loop remnant now has an estimated distance uncertainty comparable to that of its $simeq$18 pc radius.
Honeypots are more and more used to collect data on malicious activities on the Internet and to better understand the strategies and techniques used by attackers to compromise target systems. Analysis and modeling methodologies are needed to support
the characterization of attack processes based on the data collected from the honeypots. This paper presents some empirical analyses based on the data collected from the Leurr{e}.com honeypot platforms deployed on the Internet and presents some preliminary modeling studies aimed at fulfilling such objectives.
The Sphynx project was an exploratory study to discover what might be done to improve the heavy replication of in- structions in independent instruction caches for a massively parallel machine where a single program is executing across all of the cor
es. While a machine with only many cores (fewer than 50) might not have any issues replicating the instructions for each core, as we approach the era where thousands of cores can be placed on one chip, the overhead of instruction replication may become unacceptably large. We believe that a large amount of sharing should be possible when the ma- chine is configured for all of the threads to issue from the same set of instructions. We propose a technique that allows sharing an instruction cache among a number of independent processor cores to allow for inter-thread sharing and reuse of instruction memory. While we do not have test cases to demonstrate the potential magnitude of performance gains that could be achieved, the potential for sharing reduces the die area required for instruction storage on chip.
