Over the past decade, the trajectory to the petascale has been built on increased complexity and scale of the underlying parallel architectures. Meanwhile, software developers hav...
The range of human kinematic motion as well as force resolution should be known for design of a haptic device. In addition, a haptic interface can be designed more easily when mas...
Short vector SIMD instructions on recent microprocessors, such as SSE on Pentium III and 4, speed up code but are a major challenge to software developers. We present a compiler t...
As the complexity of embedded systems grows rapidly, it is common to accelerate critical tasks with hardware. Designers usually use off-the-shelf components or licensed IP cores t...
