In this work, we research the suitability of the Cell Broadband Engine for database processing. We start by outlining the main architectural features of Cell and use microbenchmar...
Recently, graphics processing units, or GPUs, have become a viable alternative as commodity, parallel hardware for generalpurpose computing, due to their massive data-parallelism,...

We consider scheduling problems in which a job consists of components of different types to be processed on m machines. Each machine is capable of processing components of a singl...
We propose that the behaviour of non-linear media can be controlled automatically through coevolutionary systems. By extension, forms of unconventional computing, i.e., massively ...
