  1. 21. Proxy-based prefetching and pushing of web resources

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Databas och informationsteknik

    Author : Jacob Holm; [2016]
    Keywords : prefetching; proxy-based prefetching; proxy-based push; live prefetch evaluation; live push evaluation; lower UPL;

    Abstract : The use of WWW is more prevalent now than ever. Latency has a significant impact on the WWW, with higher latencies causing longer loading time of webpages. On the other hand, if we can lower the latency, we will lower the loading time of a webpage. READ MORE

  3. 22. Employing Hardware Transactional Memory in Prefetching for Energy Efficiency

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Georgios Zacharopoulos; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Energy efficiency is becoming a highly significant topic regarding modern hardware. The need for decreased energy consumption in our computers and more battery life in our laptops and smart-phones is increasing, without sustaining performance loss in our machines. READ MORE

  4. 23. Efficient Implementation of 3D Finite Difference Schemes on Recent Processor Architectures

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för datavetenskap och kommunikation (CSC)

    Author : Frederick Ceder; [2015]
    Keywords : hpc; high performance computing; intel; haswell; xeon phi; knights corner; burgers equation; finite difference methods; fdm; ftcs; parallel programming; vectorization; simd;

    Abstract : Efficient Implementation of 3D Finite Difference Schemes on Recent Processors Abstract In this paper a solver is introduced that solves a problem set modelled by the Burgers equation using the finite difference method: forward in time and central in space. The solver is parallelized and optimized for Intel Xeon Phi 7120P as well as Intel Xeon E5-2699v3 processors to investigate differences in terms of performance between the two architectures.

  5. 24. Prefetching for the Kilo-Instruction Processor

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

    Author : Matherey Bracamonte Nunez; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The large latency of memory accesses in modern computer systems is a key obstacle to achieving high processor utilization. Techniques to reduce or tolerate large memory latencies become essential for achieving high processor utilization. Prefetch is one of the most widely studied mechanisms at literature. READ MORE

  6. 25. Performance analysis and improvement of PostgreSQL

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Martin Lindblom; Fredrik Strandin; [2015]
    Keywords : PostgreSQL; postgres; performance analysis; optimization; prefetching; filesystems; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : PostgreSQL is a database management system, used in many different applications throughout the industry. As databases often are the bottlenecks in the performance of applications, their performance becomes crucial. Better performance can either be achieved by using more and faster hardware, or by making the software more efficient. READ MORE
