With the increasing trend of microprocessor manufacturers to rely on parallelism to increase their products’ performance, there is an associated increasing need for simple techn...
The web browser is a CPU-intensive program. Especially on mobile devices, webpages load too slowly, expending significant time in processing a document’s appearance. Due to powe...
To fully exploit multicore processors, applications are expected to provide a large degree of thread-level parallelism. While adequate for low core counts and their typical worklo...
Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
