Abstract--The H.264 standard achieves much higher coding efficiency than the MPEG-2 standard, due to its improved inter-and intra-prediction modes at the expense of higher computat...
This paper describes a scalable parallel marking technique for garbage collection that does not employ any synchronization operation. To achieve good scalability, two major design...
As supercomputers are being built from an ever increasing number of processing elements, the effort required to achieve a substantial fraction of the system peak performance is con...
Programming distributed-memory machines requires careful placement of datato balance the computationalload among the nodes and minimize excess data movement between the nodes. Mos...
