Performance optimization of stencil computations has been widely studied in the literature,
since they occur in many computationally intensive scientific and engineering applications …

Developed for multimedia and game applications, as well as other numerically intensive
workloads, the CELL processor provides support both for highly parallel codes, which have …

We describe the Java runtime parallelizing machine (Jrpm), a complete system for
parallelizing sequential programs automatically. Jrpm is based on a chip multiprocessor …

This paper demonstrates how to use Simkit to create discrete event simulation models using
a component framework. The component framework is based on a listener design pattern …

The authors consider auditory distance perception of a moving observer and its relevance
for the perception of stationary and moving sources. They begin with a review of some of the …

Modern applications employ several heterogeneous memory types for improved
performance, security, and reliability. To manage them, programmers must currently digress …

We present an HPF implementation of BT, SP, LU, FT, CG and MG of the NPB2. 3-serial
benchmark set. The implementation is based on HPF performance model of the benchmark …

Thread-level speculation (TLS) allows sequential programs to be arbitrarily decomposed
into threads that can be safely executed in parallel. A key challenge for TLS processors is …

We present a strategy, called recursive prismatic time skewing, that increase temporal reuse
at all memory hierarchy levels, thus improving the performance of scientific codes that use …

To exploit parallelism on shared memory parallel computers (SMPCs), it is natural to focus
on decomposing the computation (mainly by distributing the iterations of the nested Do …
