Over the past decade, system architectures have started on a clear trend towards increased parallelism and heterogeneity, often resulting in speedups of 10x to 100x. Despite numer...
The field of bioinformatics is witnessing a rapid and overwhelming accumulation of molecular sequence data, predominantly driven by novel wet-lab sequencing techniques. This trend...

The control flow of common processors does not match the specific needs of reactive systems. Key issues for these systems are preemption and concurrency, combined with timing pred...
There is a class of sparse matrix computations, such as direct solvers of systems of linear equations, that change the fill-in (nonzero entries) of the coefficient matrix, and invo...
