Abstract:Abstract. Complex software systems use many shared libraries frequently composed of large off-the-shelf components. Only a limited number of functions are used from these shared libraries. Historically demand paging prevented this from wasting large amounts of memory. Many high end systems lack virtual memory and thus must load the entire shared library into each node's memory. In this paper we propose a system which decreases the memory footprint of applications by selectively loading only the used portions o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
