When vectorizing for SIMD architectures that are commonly employed by today’s multimedia extensions, one of the new challenges that arise is the handling of memory alignment. Pr...
— Large Clusters, high availability clusters and Grid deployments often suffer from network, node or operating system faults and thus require the use of fault tolerant programmin...
The recent shift in the industry towards chip multiprocessor (CMP) designs has brought the need for multi-threaded applications to mainstream computing. As observed in several lim...
Software energy estimation is a critical step in the design of energyefficient embedded systems. Instruction-level simulation techniques, despite several advances, remain too slo...
