The Sony-Toshiba-IBM Cell Broadband Engine is a heterogeneous multicore architecture that consists of a traditional microprocessor (PPE) with eight SIMD coprocessing units (SPEs) ...
We develop an analytical model of information dissemination for a gossip protocol. With this model we analyse how fast an item is replicated through a network. We also determine th...

Abstract. Motivated by parallel optimization, we study the SelfAdaptation algorithm for large population sizes. We first show that the current version of this algorithm does not r...
This paper provides a background and rationale for some of the architecture and design decisions in the Cell processor, a processor optimized for compute-intensive and broadband r...
