Memory system bottlenecks limit performance for many applications, and computations with strided access patterns are among the hardest hit. The streams used in such applications h...
This paper presents an architectural framework for customizing Object Request Broker (ORB) implementations to application-specific preferences for various non-functional requiremen...
Many distributed multimedia applications have the ability to adapt to uctuations in the network conditions. By adjusting temporal and spatial quality to available bandwidth, or man...
—Reducing communication latency, which is a performance bottleneck in optically interconnected multiprocessor systems, is of prominent importance. A conventional approach for est...
Low-overhead message passing is critical to the performance of many applications. Active Messages[27] reduce the software overhead for message handling: messages are run as handle...
