  1. 11. Big Data Types : Internally Parallel in an Actor Language

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Josef Hansson Karakoca; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Around year 2005 the hardware industry hit a power wall. It was no longer possible to drastically increasing computer performance through decreasing the transistors' size or increasing the clock-speed of the CPU. To ensure future development multi-core processors became the way to go. READ MORE

  3. 12. Analyzing OpenMP Parallelization Capabilities and Finding Thread Handling Optimums

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Avdelningen för Matematik, Data- och Lantmäteriteknik

    Author : Simon Olofsson; Emrik Olsson; [2018]
    Keywords : OpenMP; Parallelization Capabilities; Dynamic; Thread Handling; Performance; OpenMP; Parallell exekvering; Dynamisk trådhantering; Prestanda; Optimum;

    Abstract : Utmaningar i modern processortillverkning begränsar klockfrekvensen för enkeltrådiga applikationer, vilket har resulterat i utvecklingen av flerkärniga processorer. Dessa processorer tillåter flertrådig exekvering och ökar därmed prestandan. READ MORE

  4. 13. Memory Management Error Detection in Parallel Software using a Simulated Hardware Platform

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

    Author : Udayan Prabir Sinha; [2017]
    Keywords : computer architecture; concurrent computing; dynamic binary analysis; memory management errors; operating systems; virtual platform; uninitialized memory; datorarkitektur; parallella mjukvarusystem; dynamisk binär analys; minneshanteringsfel; operativsystem; virtuell plattform; ej initialiserat minne;

    Abstract : Memory management errors in concurrent software running on multi-core architectures can be difficult and costly to detect and repair. Examples of errors are usage of uninitialized memory, memory leaks, and data corruptions due to unintended overwrites of data that are not owned by the writing entity. READ MORE

  5. 14. Power-Aware Software Development For EMCA DSP

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

    Author : Meishenglan Zhang; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The advent of FinFET technology necessitates a shift towards early dynamic power awareness, not only for ASIC block designers but also for software engineers that develop code for those blocks. CMOS dynamic power is typically reduced by optimizing the RTL models in terms of switching activity and clock gating efficiency. READ MORE

  6. 15. Performance Optimisation of Discrete-Event Simulation Software on Multi-Core Computers

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

    Author : Alain E. Kaeslin; [2016]
    Keywords : cache hierarchy; caches; communication overhead; data structures; discrete-event simulation; heap memory; linear speedup; logistic support; low-overhead profiler; memory allocator; microarchitecture; microarchitecture analysis; multi-core; optimisation; parallel execution; profiler; runtime; scalability; scalability bottlenecks; scalable memory allocator; simulation; translation lookaside buffer; translation lookaside buffer thrashing; TLB;

    Abstract : SIMLOX is a discrete-event simulation software developed by Systecon AB for analysing logistic support solution scenarios. To cope with ever larger problems, SIMLOX's simulation engine was recently enhanced with a parallel execution mechanism in order to take advantage of multi-core processors. READ MORE
