This paper presents e cient and portable implementations of a useful image enhancement process, the Symmetric Neighborhood Filter SNF, and an image segmentation technique which ma...
Although grid computing offers great potential for executing large-scale bioinformatics applications, practical deployment is constrained by legacy interfaces. Most widely deployed...
Abstract? Fixed-point DSPs are a class of embedded processors with highly irregular architectures. This irregularity makes it difficult to generate high-quality machine code from p...
Improvements in main memory speeds have not kept pace with increasing processor clock frequency and improved exploitation of instruction-level parallelism. Consequently, the gap b...
On a distributed memory machine, hand-coded message passing leads to the most efficient execution, but it is difficult to use. Parallelizing compilers can approach the performance...
