High-performance and low-power VLIW DSP processors are increasingly deployed on embedded devices to process video and multimedia applications. For reducing power and cost in desig...
Mobile terminals (cellular phones, PDAs, palmtops etc.) emerge as a new class of small-scale, ad-hoc service providers that share data and functionality via mobile web services’...
Parallel and distributed programming is conceptually harder to undertake and to understand than sequential programming, because a programmer often has to manage the coexistence an...
We present SETS, an architecture for efficient search in peer-to-peer networks, building upon ideas drawn from machine learning and social network theory. The key idea is to arran...
Parallel architectures are the way of the future, but are notoriously difficult to program. In addition to the low-level constructs they often present (e.g., locks, DMA, and non-...
