Parallel scalability allows an application to efficiently utilize an increasing number of processing elements. In this paper we explore a design space for parallel scalability for...
In the near future, the majority of personal computers are expected to have several processing units. This is referred to as Core Multiprocessing (CMP). Furthermore, each of the c...
Tuning applications for multi-core systems involve subtle concepts and target-dependent optimizations. New languages are being designed to express concurrency and locality without...
