Virtual Interface Architecture(VIA) is a light-weight protocol for protected user-level zero-copy communication. In spite of high performance of VIA, the previous MPI implementati...
The H.264/AVC video coding standard performs inter prediction using variable block sizes to improve coding efficiency. Since we predict not only the motion of the homogeneous regio...
Checkpointing is a very effective technique to tolerate the occurrence of failures in distributed and parallel applications. The existing algorithms in the literature are basicall...
Application-specific instructions can significantly improve the performance, energy, and code size of configurable processors. A common approach used in the design of such instruc...
As the demands on quality of service (QoS) of real-time applications over the Internet increase, many research efforts have developed various packet scheduling schemes to support ...
