Until very recently, microprocessor designs were computation-centric. On-chip communication was frequently ignored. This was because of fast, single-cycle on-chip communication. T...
Single System Image (SSI) Distributed Operating Systems have been the subject of increasing interest in recent years. This interest has been fueled primarily by the trend towards ...
Knowledge processing is very demanding on computer architectures. Knowledge processing generates subcomputation paths at an exponential rate. It is memory intensive and has high c...
Dual-core processors (and, to an extent, multicore processors) have been adopted in recent years to provide platforms that satisfy the performance requirements of popular multimed...
