As DRAM access latencies approach a thousand instructionexecution times and on-chip caches grow to multiple megabytes, it is not clear that conventional cache structures continue ...
Dataflow programming has proven to be popular for representing applications in rapid prototyping tools for digital signal processing (DSP); however, existing dataflow design tools...
Streamlining communication is key to achieving good performance in shared-memory parallel programs. While full hardware support for cache coherence generally offers the best perfo...
As the "system-on-a-chip" concept is rapidly becoming a reality, time-to-market and product complexity push the reuse of complex macromodules. Circuits combining a varie...
raction that a programming language provides influences the structure and algorithmic complexity of the resulting programs: just imagine creating an artificial intelligence engine ...
