stractions are extensively used to understand and solve challenging computational problems in various scientific and engineering domains. They have particularly gained prominence...
The performance of SIMD processors is often limited by the time it takes to transfer data between the centralized control unit and the parallel processor array. This is especially...
Abstract. In the last few years, the microprocessors technologies have been definitely moving to multi-core architectures, in order to improve performances as well as reduce power ...
—Accelerators are special purpose processors designed to speed up compute-intensive sections of applications. Two extreme endpoints in the spectrum of possible accelerators are F...
