Background: To date more than 2,1 million gene products from more than 100000 different species have been described specifying their function, the processes they are involved in a...
Due to their high volume, general-purpose processors, and now chip multiprocessors (CMPs), are much more cost effective than ASICs, but lag significantly in terms of performance a...
In this paper, we introduce PTLsim, a cycle accurate full system x86-64 microprocessor simulator and virtual machine. PTLsim models a modern superscalar out of order x86-64 proces...
Abstract--The lag of parallel programming models and languages behind the advance of heterogeneous many-core processors has left a gap between the computational capability of moder...
Commercial cloud offerings, such as Amazon's EC2, let users allocate compute resources on demand, charging based on reserved time intervals. While this gives great flexibilit...
