  1. 1. Parallelization in Rust with fork-join and friends: Creating the fork-join framework

    University essay from

    Author : Linus Färnstrand; [2019-07-03T13:42:24Z 2019-07-03T13:42:24Z 2015]
    Keywords : Data- och informationsvetenskap; Computer and Information Science;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the design, implementation and benchmarking of a work stealing fork-join library, called ForkJoin, for the new language Rust. Rust is a programming language with a novel approach to memory safety and concurrency, and guarantees memory safety through zero-cost abstractions and thorough checks at compile time rather than run time.

  3. 2. Modeling Intel® Cilk™ Plus Programs with Unified Modeling Languages

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap (DV)

    Author : Mansoor Ata-Ul-Nasar; [2015]
    Keywords : Parallel Programming; Intel Cilk Plus; Unified Modelling Languages; Activity Models;

    Abstract : Recently multi-core processors have become very popular in computer systems. It allows multiple threads to be executed simultaneously. The advantage of multi-core comes by parallelizing codes to expand the work across hardware. Furthermore, this can be done by using a parallel environment developed by M. READ MORE

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Ananya Muddukrishna; [2010]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Future multi- and many- core processors are likely to have tens of cores arranged in a tiled architecture where each tile will house a processing core and a bank of the shared last-level cache. The physical distribution of tiles on the processor die gives rise to a Distributed Shared Cache (DSC) architecture where cache access latencies are non-uniform and depend on the physical distance between core and cache bank.
