— General purpose architectures are designed to offer average high performance regardless of the particular application that is being run. Performance and power inefficiencies a...
Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) have recently emerged as a new promising paradigm for supporting distributed computing. Web services, as well as integration-packages relying ...
Large–scale parallel applications performing global synchronization may spend a significant amount of execution time waiting for the completion of a barrier operation. Conseque...
This paper describes a dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) technique for MPEG decoding to reduce the energy consumption using the computational workload decomposition. Th...
Recent high-performance processors employ sophisticated techniques to overlap and simultaneously execute multiple computation and memory operations. Intuitively, these techniques ...
