  1. 6. Speeding Up Value at Risk Calculations Using Accelerators

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

    Author : Jonas af Sandeberg; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Calculating Value at Risk (VaR) can be a time consuming task. Therefore it is of interest to find a way to parallelize this calculation to increase performance. READ MORE

  3. 7. Speeding up matrix computation kernels by sharing vector coprocessor among multiple cores on chip

    University essay from JTH, Data- och elektroteknik

    Author : Christopher Dahlberg; [2012]
    Keywords : Coprocessor; Speeding-up; Accelerator; Power efficiency; Shared resources; Vector processor; Multi-core on chip; Matrix algorithm; Matrix computation kernels;

    Abstract : Today’s computer systems develop towards less energy consumption while keeping high performance. These are contradictory requirement and pose a great challenge. A good example of an application were this is used is the smartphone. The constraints are on long battery time while getting high performance required by future 2D/3D applications. READ MORE

  4. 8. Evaluation of the Turbo-decoder Coprocessor on a TMS320C64x Digital Signal Processor

    University essay from Kommunikationssystem

    Author : Johan Ahlqvist; [2011]
    Keywords : Turbo decoding; Turbo-decoder Coprocessor; Digital Signal Processor; C64x;

    Abstract : One technique that is used to reduce the errors brought upon signals, when transmitted over noisy channels, is error control coding. One type of such coding, which has a good performance, is turbo coding. In some of the TMS320C64xTM digital signal processors there is a built in coprocessor that performs turbo decoding. READ MORE

  5. 9. Performance evaluation and optimization of an OMAP platform for embedded SDR systems

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

    Author : Carlo Rinaldi; [2011]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : During recent years, waveform signal processing within a radio system is performed more and more in the digital domain rather than the analog domain. This is exemplified in Software Defined Radios (SDRs) systems. A SDR is a radio system whose components are realized in software rather than in hardware. READ MORE

  6. 10. Implementation of Elementary Functions for a Fixed Point SIMD DSP Coprocessor

    University essay from Datorteknik

    Author : Orri Tomasson; [2010]
    Keywords : SIMD; DSP; mathematical functions; elementary functions; polynomial approximation; fixed-point arithmetic;

    Abstract : This thesis is about implementing the functions for reciprocal, square root, inverse square root and logarithms on a DSP platform. A multi-core DSP platform that consists of one master processor core and several SIMD coprocessor cores is currently being designed by a team at the Computer Engineering Department of Linköping University.
