    Abstract : SIMLOX is a discrete-event simulation software developed by Systecon AB for analysing logistic support solution scenarios. To cope with ever larger problems, SIMLOX's simulation engine was recently enhanced with a parallel execution mechanism in order to take advantage of multi-core processors. READ MORE

  2. 2. Optimizing Memory Management with Object-Local Heaps

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Martin Hagelin; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The large discrepancy between the speed of caches and main memory makes efficient memory management more important than ever. This report gives an overview of the current state of the art in memory management, and how then can be used to make the most of hardware systems like cache hierarchies and hardware prefetchers.
