The interconnect mechanisms (shared bus or crossbar) used in current chip-multiprocessors (CMPs) are expected to become a bottleneck that prevents these architectures from scaling...
We present a new interaction technique to simulate textures in desktop applications without a haptic interface. The proposed technique consists in modifying the motion of the curs...
— Cloud computing has gained significant traction in recent years. The Map-Reduce framework is currently the most dominant programming model in cloud computing settings. In this ...
This paper presents the concept of pluggable parallelisation that allows scientists to develop “sequential like” codes that can take advantage of multi-core, cluster and grid ...
Parallel processing using multiple processors is a well-established technique to accelerate many different classes of applications. However, as the density of chips increases, ano...
