Simulation methodologies for future large-scale parallel systems
Since the early 2000s, computer systems have seen a transition from single-core to multi-core systems. While single-core systems included only one processor core on a chip, current multi-core processors include up to tens ...
Memory hierarchies for future HPC architectures
Efficiently managing the memory subsystem of modern multi/manycore architectures is increasingly becoming a challenge as systems grow in complexity and heterogeneity. In the field of high performance computing (HPC) in ...
Edge-elements formulation of 3D CSEM in geophysics : a parallel approach
Electromagnetic methods (EM) are an invaluable research tool in geophysics whose relevance has increased rapidly in recent years due to its wide industrial adoption. In particular, the forward modelling of three-dimensional ...
Enabling the use of embedded and mobile technologies for high-performance computing
In the late 1990s, powerful economic forces led to the adoption of commodity desktop processors in High-Performance Computing(HPC). This transformation has been so effective that the November 2016 TOP500 list is still ...
Enabling caches in probabilistic timing analysis
Hardware and software complexity of future critical real-time systems challenges the scalability of traditional timing analysis methods. Measurement-Based Probabilistic Timing Analysis (MBPTA) has recently emerged as an ...
Query expansion by relying on the structure of knowledge bases
Query expansion techniques aim at improving the results achieved by a user's query by means of introducing new expansion terms, called expansion features. Expansion features introduce new concepts that are semantically ...
Energy optimising methodologies on heterogeneous data centres
In 2013, U.S. data centres accounted for 2.2% of the country's total electricity consumption, a figure that is projected to increase rapidly over the next decade. A significant proportion of power consumed within a data ...
Forwarding fault detection in wireless community networks
Wireless community networks (WCN) are specially vulnerable to routing forwarding failures because of their intrinsic characteristics: use of inexpensive hardware that can be easily accessed; managed in a decentralized way, ...
On algorithmic reductions in task-parallel programming models
