1. On-chip Pipelined Parallel Mergesort on the Intel Single-Chip Cloud Computer
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Programvara och system; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolanAbstract : With the advent of mass-market consumer multicore processors, the growing trend in the consumer off-the-shelf general purpose processor industry has moved away from increasing clock frequency as the classical approach for achieving higher performance. This is commonly attributed to the well-known problems of power consumption and heat dissipation with high frequencies and voltage. READ MORE

2. Parallelization of Animation Blending on the PlayStation®3
University essay from Informationskodning; Tekniska högskolanAbstract : An animation system gives a dynamic and life-like feel to character motions, allowing motion behaviour that far transcends the mere spatial translations of classic computer games. This increase in behavioural complexity however does not come for free as animation systems often are haunted by considerable performance overhead, the extent of which reflecting the complexity of the desired system.

3. Compiling the parallel programming language NestStep to the CELL processor
University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : The goal of this project is to create a source-to-source compiler which will translate NestStep code to C code. The compiler's job is to replace NestStep constructs with a series of function calls to the NestStep runtime system. NestStep is a parallel programming language extension based on the BSP model.

5. Real-Time Ray Tracing on the Cell Processor
University essay from Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Tekniska högskolanAbstract : The first ray casting algorithm was introduced as early as 1966 and was followed by the first ray tracing algorithm in 1979. Since then many revisions to both these algorithms have been presented along with the strong development of computer processors. READ MORE
