Recent digital signal processors (DSPs) show a homogeneous VLIW-like data path architecture, which allows C compilers to generate efficient code. However, still some special rest...
Rendering high-quality computer animations requires intensive computation, and therefore a large amount of time. One way to speed up this process is to devise rendering algorithms...
Scheduling jobs on the IBM SP2 system is usually done by giving each job a partition of the machine for its exclusive use. Allocating such partitions in the order that the jobs ar...
The current multiprocessors such asCray T3D support interprocessor communication using partitioned dimension-order routers (PDRs). In a PDR implementation, the routing logic and sw...
