  • 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...

  • 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....

  • 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)...

  • Architectural support for multithreading on a 4-way multiprocessor

    Creator:
    Kim, Gwang-Myung
    Abstract:
    The microprocessors will have more than a billion logic transistors on a single chip in the near future. Several alternatives have been suggested for obtaining highest performance with billion-transistor chips. To achieve the highest performance possible, an on-chip multiprocessor will become one promising alternative to the current superscalar microprocessor. It...

  • A comparison of task scheduling algorithms on multicomputers

    Creator:
    Shin, Chae Young
    Abstract:
    For many years, the von Neumann bottleneck has imposed speed limits on the execution of a program. Because of their sequential nature, von Neumann computers can only execute a single instruction at a time. Instructions that are side-effect free and can be executed in parallel must wait. In an effort...
