This article describes the historical context, technical challenges, and main implementation techniques used by VMware Workstation to bring virtualization to the x86 architecture in 1999. Although virtual machine monitors (VMMs) had been around for decades ...
Personal digital assistants or mobile phones applications are not anymore restricted to multimedia or wireless communications, but have been extended to handle Global Positioning System (GPS) functionalities. Consequently, the growing market of GPS capable ...
According to the World Health Organization, lifestyle-related diseases, e.g., cardiovascular diseases are the major cause of mortality worldwide. An accurate and continuous medical supervision is highly required for diagnosis and treatment of such diseases ...
A technique to speed up Montgomery multiplication targeted at the Synergistic Processor Elements (SPE) of the Cell Broadband Engine is proposed. The technique consists of splitting a number into four consecutive parts. These parts are placed one by one in ...

This dissertation is concerned with static analysis of binary executables in a theoretically well-founded, sound, yet practical way. The major challenge is the reconstruction of a correct control flow graph in presence of indirect jumps, pointer arithmetic ...
Compressed sensing (CS) is a universal low-complexity data compression technique for signals that have a sparse representation in some domain. While CS data compression can be done both in the analog- and digital domain, digital implementations are often u ...
A method and apparatus to produce a net list of gates and Flip-Flops for one algorithm in order to find the best compromise between power consumption, speed and silicon surface by using a two step process. First the algorithm is written for a processor tha ...
This paper introduces SIMinG-1k-a manycore simulator infrastructure. SIMinG-1k is a graphics processing unit accelerated, parallel simulator for design-space exploration of large-scale manycore systems. It features an optimal trade-off between modeling acc ...
Profilers based on hardware performance counters are indispensable for performance debugging of complex software systems. All modern processors feature hardware performance counters, but current virtual machine monitors (VMMs) do not properly expose them t ...
Virtualization is a key enabling technology for cloud computing. Many applications deployed in a cloud run in virtual machines. However, profilers based on CPU performance counters do not work well in a virtualized environment. In this paper, we explore th ...
