The most commonly used request processing model in multithreaded web servers is thread-per-request, in which an individual thread is bound to serve each web request. However, with...
Data prefetching via helper threading has been extensively investigated on Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) or Virtual Multi-Threading (VMT) architectures. Although reportedly la...
Dynamic synchronous Transfer Mode (DTM) is a new protocol suite based on synchronous fast circuit switching. The DTM network is based on bandwidth reservation and supports dynamic...
In standard predictive video coders, intra-mode coding of macroblocks (MBs) provides packet loss resilience, at the cost of reduced compression efficiency. Conventional mode selec...
In this paper, we explore a hybrid global/local search optimization framework for dynamic voltage scaling in embedded multiprocessor systems. The problem is to find, for a multipr...
