Processing nodes of the Cray XT and IBM Blue Gene Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) systems are composed of multiple execution units, sharing memory and network subsystems. Thes...

We present an overview of the Synchroscalar single-chip, multi-core processor. Through the design of Synchroscalar, we find that high energy efficiency and low complexity can be a...

Heterogeneous multi-core processors, such as the IBM Cell processor, can deliver high performance. However, these processors are notoriously difficult to program: different cores...
Abstract. We show how computations such as those involved in American or European-style option price valuations with the explicit finite difference method can be performed in par...
Abstract. Multi-core processors with shared last-level caches are vulnerable to performance inefficiencies and fairness issues when the cache is not carefully managed between the m...
