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...
Current day network processors incorporate several architectural features including symmetric multi-processing (SMP), block multi-threading, and multiple memory elements to suppor...
Increased complexity of memory systems to ameliorate the gap between the speed of processors and memory has made it increasingly harder for compilers to optimize an arbitrary code...
Functional, instruction-based self-testing of microprocessors has recently emerged as an effective alternative or supplement to other testing approaches, and is progressively adop...
