Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) virtual machines (VMs) allow users to take advantage of a multiprocessor infrastructure. Despite the advantage, SMP VMs can cause synchronization l...
Efficiently utilizing off-chip DRAM bandwidth is a critical issue in designing cost-effective, high-performance chip multiprocessors (CMPs). Conventional memory controllers deli...
The Earliest Deadline First scheduling algorithm (EDF) is known to not be optimal under global scheduling on multiprocessor platforms. Results have been obtained that bound the ma...
