Matrices are essential in many fields of computer science, especially when large amounts of data must be handled efficiently. Despite this demand for matrix software, we were una...
Sparse matrix operations achieve only small fractions of peak CPU speeds because of the use of specialized, indexbased matrix representations, which degrade cache utilization by i...
Modern chip-level multiprocessors (CMPs) contain multiple processor cores sharing a common last-level cache, memory interconnects, and other hardware resources. Workloads running ...
