The current trend in HPC hardware is towards clusters of shared-memory (SMP) compute nodes. For applications developers the major question is how best to program these SMP cluster...
There is a multicore platform that is currently concentrating an enormous attention due to its tremendous potential in terms of sustained performance: the NVIDIA Tesla boards. The...
Abstract. Profiling is often the method of choice for performance analysis of parallel applications due to its low overhead and easily comprehensible results. However, a disadvanta...
Hyperthreaded (HT) and simultaneous multithreaded (SMT) processors are now available in commodity workstations and servers. This technology is designed to increase throughput by e...
Graphics processors (GPUs) provide a vast number of simple, data-parallel, deeply multithreaded cores and high memory bandwidths. GPU architectures are becoming increasingly progr...
