An object-based processor cache. (1993)
Report
Russell, G., & Shaw, P. (1993). An object-based processor cache

In the past, many persistent object-oriented architecture designs have been based on traditional processor technologies. Such architectures invariantly attempt to insert an object-level abstraction mechanism over the traditional processorÕs virtual a... Read More about An object-based processor cache..

A stack-based register set. (1993)
Report
Russell, G., & Shaw, P. (1993). A stack-based register set

Register windowing has become a common sight in high speed processors, reducing the memory traffic required to preserve register contents over sub-routine invocations. However, approaches to register windowing have changed little since their introduc... Read More about A stack-based register set..

An Appreciation of the Subtleties of Shared Channels in occam3 (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Waithe, S., & Kerridge, J. (1993). An Appreciation of the Subtleties of Shared Channels in occam3. In Transputer and Occam Research: New Directions (232-245)

By exploiting virtual channels implemented on the INMOS T9000 transputer, occam3 offers the facility of sharing. This allows us to declare a channel as SHARED which then allows an arbitrary number of processes to communicate across this channel. By m...
