For mobile embedded systems, the energy consumption is a limiting factor because of today’s battery capacities. Besides the processor, memory accesses consume a high amount of en...
We consider networks of workstations which are not only timesharing, but also heterogeneous with a large variation in the computing power and memory capacities of different workst...
When using a shared memory multiprocessor, the programmer faces the selection of the portable programming model which will deliver the best performance. Even if he restricts his c...
With the ongoing advancements in VLSI technology, the performance of an embedded system is determined to a large extend by the communication of data and instructions. This results...
Caching techniques have been used to improve the performance gap of storage hierarchies in computing systems. In data intensive applications that access large data files over wid...
