Subways and Urban Growth: Evidence from Earth∗

We investigate the relationship between the extent of a city’s subway network, its population and its spatial configuration. To accomplish this investigation, for a sample of the 632 largest cities in the world, we construct panel data describing the extent of each of the 138 subway systems in these cities, their population, and measures of centralization calculated from lights at night data. T...

Microarchitectural Miss/Execute Decoupling

The decoupled access/execute architecture described a machine that enables the access of memory values to be decoupled from the consumption of those values. Although never widely adopted in its original form, the decoupled design is a compelling way to tolerate memory latency. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a novel implementation of decoupling, one based on the following two refineme...
