Speculative Parallel Threading Architecture and Compilation
Thread-level speculation is a technique that brings thread-level parallelism beyond the data-flow limit by executing a piece of code ahead of time speculatively before all its inp...

Factoring Solution Sets of Polynomial Systems in Parallel
We report on a £rst parallel implementation of a recent algorithm to factor positive dimensional solution sets of polynomial systems. As the algorithm uses homotopy continuation,...

The Partitioned Scheduling of Sporadic Real-Time Tasks on Multiprocessor Platforms
Abstract— In the sporadic task model, a task is characterized by three parameters — an execution requirement, a relative deadline, and a period parameter — and has the interp...
