Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) achieves better system resource utilization and higher performance because it exploits ThreadLevel Parallelism (TLP) in addition to “conventiona...
OpenMP has emerged as a widely accepted standard for writing shared memory programs. Hardware-specific extensions such as data placement are usually needed to improve the scalabi...
Gang Scheduling and related techniques are widely believed to be necessary for efficientjob scheduling on distributed memory parallel computers. This is hecause they minimize cont...
Many parallel applications from scientific computing use MPI collective communication operations to collect or distribute data. Since the execution times of these communication op...
Entropy encoding and decoding is a crucial part of any multimedia system that can be highly demanding in terms of computing power. Hardware implementation of typical compression a...
