With the shrinking of transistors continuing to follow Moore's Law and the non-scalability of conventional outof-order processors, multi-core systems are becoming the design ...
The performance of threads is limited primarily by the overhead of two kinds of switching: vertical switching (user/kernel domain switching) and horizontal switching (context swit...
raction that a programming language provides influences the structure and algorithmic complexity of the resulting programs: just imagine creating an artificial intelligence engine ...
The Mermaid project focuses on the construction of simulation models for MIMD multi-computers in order to evaluate them and to give estimates of the system’s performance. A multi...
