We propose a high performance architecture for fractional motion estimation and Lagrange mode decision in H.264/AVC. Instead of time-consuming fractional-pixel interpolation and s...
The recent improvements in workstation and interconnection network performance have popularized the clusters of off-the-shelf workstations. However, the usefulness of these cluste...
Three-Dimensional integration provides a simultaneous improvement in wire-related delay and power consumption of microprocessor circuits. Prior work has looked at the performance,...
Effective use of communication networks is critical to the performance and scalability of parallel applications. Partitioned Global Address Space languages like UPC bring the pro...
The role of the operating system (OS) in managing shared resources such as CPU time, memory, peripherals, and even energy is well motivated and understood [23]. Unfortunately, one...
