Pointer swizzling at page fault time: efficiently and compatibly supporting huge address spaces on standard hardwarePointer swizzling at page fault time is a novel address translation mechanism that exploits conventional address translation hardware....
Method and apparatus for portable checkpointing using data structure metrics and conversion functions... The present invention additionally provides a method and apparatus for conversion of data representations between a local machine format and a Universal Checkpoint Format (UCF) and a method for pointer handling, which involves transforming as absolute pointer into a machine independent offset and vice versa
Quantifying load stream behavior... In this paper we perform a detailed quantification of the cache miss patterns for the Olden benchmarks, SPEC 2000 benchmarks, and a collection of pointer based applications....
Pesticide: using smt to improve performance of pointer-bug detectionAbstract—Pointer bugs associated with dynamically-allocated objects resulting in out-of-bounds memory access are an important class of software bugs....
