Increasing focus on multimedia applications has prompted the addition of multimedia extensions to most existing general purpose microprocessors. This added functionality comes pri...
We present a novel mechanism, called meeting point thread characterization, to dynamically detect critical threads in a parallel region. We define the critical thread the one with...
Heterogeneous distributed computing platforms continue to require substantial effort in terms of software installation and management for efficient use, often necessitating manua...
We introduce a distributed algorithm for solving large scale Support Vector Machines (SVM) problems. The algorithm divides the training set into a number of processing nodes each ...
