  • Instruction fetching, scheduling, and forwarding in a dynamic multithreaded processor

    Creator:
    Browning, Adam W.
    Abstract:
    Dynamic multithreaded processors attempt to increase the performance of a single sequential program by dynamically extracting threads from sources such as loop iterations. The scheduling of instructions in such a processor plays a vital role in the amount of thread level parallelism that can be extracted and thus the overall...

  • Power reduction of MPEG video decoding for mobile multimedia systems

    Creator:
    Lewis, James M.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to explore methods which can reduce the power dissipation of a mobile system while decoding MPEG video. MPEG decoding is a microprocessor intensive process that makes heavy use of both the L1 and L2 caches as well as main memory. The heavy load placed...

  • Infant Hand Detection and Tracking

    Creator:
    Mishra, Shridhar
    Abstract:
    Hand detection is a fundamental step for many hand-related computer vision tasks, such as gesture recognition, hand pose estimation, hand sign language translation, and so on. However, robustly detecting hands is a challenging task because of drastic changes in appearance based on finger articulation and changes in lighting conditions, camera...

  • Cost-Age-Time Data Organized Garbage Collection

    Creator:
    Lee, Dongjun
    Abstract:
    NAND flash based solid state drives (SSDs) require out-of-place updating due to the characteristics of flash memories. In addition, due to the mismatched granularity between read/write and erase operations, a cleaning policy involving garbage collection and wear leveling has to perform data migration incurring high overhead. Another challenge is that...

  • Dependency speculation in dynamic simultaneous multi-threading

    Creator:
    Nelson, Jarrod A.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to explore dependency speculation in Dynamic Simultaneous Multi-Threading (DSMT). DSMT is a microprocessor architecture which attempts to extract Thread Level Parallelism (TLP) from single-threaded programs at run-time. This is accomplished by running multiple iterations of program loops in parallel. The DSMT architecture was originally...

  • Flexible dual TCP/UDP streaming for H.264 HD video over WLANs

    Creator:
    Zhao, Jing
    Abstract:
    High Definition video streaming over WLANs faces many challenges because video data requires not only data integrity but also frames have strict playout deadline. Traditional streaming methods that rely solely on either UDP or TCP have difficulties meeting both requirements because UDP incurs packet loss while TCP incurs delay. This...

  • Adaptive Streaming Methods using Dual Protocols and Reinforcement Learning

    Creator:
    Gatimu, Kevin
    Abstract:
    The ubiquity of high quality video and proliferation of mobile devices has contributed to an unprecedented rise in video consumption. HTTP, in conjunction with adaptive streaming, has become the de facto mechanism for delivering the vast majority of video as it readily caters to heterogeneous networks and devices. This dissertation...

  • Designing multimedia extensions for configurable processors

    Creator:
    Zier, David A.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to explore the design of a multimedia extension Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) for a reconfigurable processor. An Extendable Multimedia Module (EM3) was designed as an optional module for X32V. X32V is a prototype configurable processor simulator developed at Oregon State University by John Mark...

  • Side channel attack resistant elliptic curves cryptosystem on multi-cores for power efficiency

    Creator:
    Yoo, Jaewon
    Abstract:
    The Advent of multi-cores allows programs to be executed much faster than before. Cryptoalgorithms use long-bit words thus parallelizing these operations on multi-cores will achieve significant performance improvement. However, not all long-bit word operations in cryptosystems are suitable for parallel execution on multi-cores. In particular, long-bit words used in Elliptic...

  • The dynamic speculation and performance prediction of parallel loops

    Creator:
    Zier, David A.
    Abstract:
    General purpose computer systems have seen increased performance potential through the parallel processing capabilities of multicore processors. Yet this potential performance can only be attained through parallel applications, thus forcing software developers to rethink how everyday applications are designed. The most readily form of Thread Level Parallelism (TLP) within any...
