Hyperthreaded (HT) and simultaneous multithreaded (SMT) processors are now available in commodity workstations and servers. This technology is designed to increase throughput by e...
The H.264 adopts various block types and multiple reference frames for motion compensation. For transcoding a video sequence from the H.263 format to the H.264 format, it is benef...
Commodity hardware and software are growing increasingly more complex, with advances such as chip heterogeneity and specialization, deeper memory hierarchies, ne-grained power ma...
Recent advances in bioinformatics and the significant increase in computational power available to researchers have made it possible to make better use of the vast amounts of gene...
An emerging trend in processor design is the addition of short vector instructions to general-purpose and embedded ISAs. Frequently, these extensions are employed using traditiona...
