  • Program allocation for hypercube based dataflow systems

    Creator:
    Freytag, Vincent R.
    Abstract:
    The dataflow model of computation differs from the traditional control-flow model of computation in that it does not utilize a program counter to sequence instructions in a program. Instead, the execution of instructions is based solely on the availability of their operands. Thus, an instruction is executed in a dataflow...

  • Allocation of SISAL program graphs to processors using BLAS

    Creator:
    Raisinghani, Manoj H.
    Abstract:
    There are a number of well known techniques for extracting parallelism from a given program. They range from hardware implementations, building restructuring compilers or reorganizing of programs so as to specify all the available parallelism. The success rate of any of the known techniques is rather poor over all types...

  • Fine-grain parallelism on sequential processors

    Creator:
    Kotikalapoodi, Sridhar V.
    Abstract:
    There seems to be a consensus that future Massively Parallel Architectures will consist of a number nodes, or processors, interconnected by high-speed network. Using a von Neumann style of processing within the node of a multiprocessor system has its performance limited by the constraints imposed by the control-flow execution model....

  • Interface design and system impact analysis of a message-handling processor for fine-grain multithreading

    Creator:
    Metz, David
    Abstract:
    There appears to be a broad agreement that high-performance computers of the future will be Massively Parallel Architectures (MPAs), where all processors are interconnected by a high-speed network. One of the major problems with MPAs is the latency observed for remote operations. One technique to hide this latency is multithreading....

  • Simulation studies of routing algorithms for multicomputer systems

    Creator:
    Choi, Jangmin
    Abstract:
    Efficient routing of messages is critical to the performance of multicomputers. Many adaptive routing algorithms have been proposed to improve the network efficiency; however, they can make only short-sighted decisions to choose a channel for message routing because of limited information about network condition. The short-sighted decisions may cause unnecessary...

  • Network monitoring with focus on HTTP

    Creator:
    Schmid, Andreas
    Abstract:
    Since its introduction in the early 1990s, the quick growth of the World Wide Web (WWW) traffic raises the question of whether past Local Area Network (LAN) packet traces still reflect the current situation or whether they have become obsolete. For this thesis, several LAN packet traces were obtained by...

  • The architecture of a multimedia multiprocessor

    Creator:
    Choi, Keung-Sik
    Abstract:
    The multimedia capabilities of computers have recently become the focus of computer developers due to the increasing demand for advanced computer graphics and new media capabilities, such as video conferencing, 3-D visualization, and animation. To support these multimedia capabilities, specialized graphics hardware, such as MPEG encoding/decoding card, 3-D graphics card,...

  • A study of hardware/software multithreading

    Creator:
    Carlson, Ryan L.
    Abstract:
    As the design of computers advances, two important trends have surfaced: The exploitation of parallelism and the design against memory latency. Into these two new trends has come the Multithreaded Virtual Processor (MVP). Based on a standard superscalar core, the MVP is able to exploit both Instruction Level Parallelism (ILP)...

  • A performance study of multithreading

    Creator:
    Kwak, Hantak
    Abstract:
    As the performance gap between processor and memory grows, memory latency will be a major bottleneck in achieving high processor utilization. Multithreading has emerged as one of the most promising and exciting techniques used to tolerate memory latency by exploiting thread-level parallelism. The question however remains as to how effective...
