Ethernet line rates are projected to reach 100 Gbits/s by as soon as 2010. While in principle suitable for high performance clustered and parallel applications, Ethernet requires ...
Abstract—Since the advent of multi-core processors, the physionomy of typical clusters has dramatically evolved. This new massively multi-core era is a major change in architectu...
Abstract--The now commonplace multi-core chips have introduced, by design, a deep hierarchy of memory and cache banks within parallel computers as a tradeoff between the user frien...
Abstract-- Multicore microprocessors have been largely motivated by the diminishing returns in performance and the increased power consumption of single-threaded ILP microprocessor...
