CCS'03: Randomized instruction set emulation to disrupt binary code injection attacks

This paper is very similar to the previous one, except that is store the original program on disk, and randomize it while loading it into memory.

And its key is very long, may be as long as the program.

CCS'03:Countering Code-Injection Attacks With Instruction-Set Randomization

This paper proposes an approach to counter the code injection attacks. It stores key for de-randomizing the randomized program. When the OS tries to schedule the program to run, it will load this key into a write-only register in CPU, and the CPU will de-randomize the input instruction stream before the CPU actually process it.

ASPLOS'10:Speculative Parallelization Using Software Multi-threaded Transactions

This paper proposes a software transaction memory system that can maintain automic across multiple thread.

ASPLOS'10: COMPASS: A Programmable Data Prefetcher Using Idle GPU Shaders

This paper proposes to use the GPU as a programable unit to run a GPU program that help prefetching the data for CPU.

ASPLOS'10: Dynamically Replicated Memory: Building Reliable Systems from Nanoscale Resistive Memories

This paper proposes to add another level of page table that maps the physical address to real address in PCM. This mapping can map a physical page to two PCM page that have different stuck-at fault locations. In this way, the PCM pages can still be used instead of discarded.

ASPLOS'10: Inter-Core Cooperative TLB Prefetchers for Chip Multiprocessors

This paper proposes mechanism that exploits the relation between the TLBs of different cores in CMP.

ASPLOS'10:Dynamic Filtering: Multi-Purpose Architecture Support for Language Runtime Systems

This paper proposes a hardware mechanism and instrutions to detect the rare cases that checked repeatedly in STM and GC for some address patten.
