We recently proposed a new approach to parallelization, by decomposing the time domain, instead of the conventional space domain. This improves latency tolerance, and we demonstrat...
— As growing power dissipation and thermal effects disrupted the rising clock frequency trend and threatened to annul Moore’s law, the computing industry has switched its route...
With the shift towards chip multiprocessors (CMPs), exploiting and managing parallelism has become a central problem in computer systems. Many issues of parallelism management boi...
