In this paper we present a paradigm to express streams and its implementation. Streams are a convenient mechanism to communicate multimedia data, for example video or audio, betwe...
Abstract. In this paper, we address two key trends in the synthesis of implementations for embedded multiprocessors — (1) the increasing importance of managing interprocessor com...
The register file is a power-hungry device in modern architectures. Current research on compiler technology and computer architectures encourages the implementation of larger dev...
Understanding why the performance of a multithreaded program does not improve linearly with the number of cores in a sharedmemory node populated with one or more multicore process...
