The LEGaTO project leverages task-based programming models to provide a software ecosystem for Made in-Europe heterogeneous hardware composed of CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs and dataflow engines. The aim is to attain one order of ...

Traditionally, system designers have attempted to improve system performance by scheduling the processing cores and by exploring different memory system configurations and there is comparatively less work done scheduling ...

Deep Neural Network (DNN) inference based on quantized narrow-precision integer data represents a promising research direction toward efficient deep learning computations on edge and mobile devices. On one side, recent ...

Future generations of Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) will provide dozens or even hundreds of cores inside the chip. Writing applications that benefit from the massive computational power offered by these chips is not going to ...

This paper considers implementing the Object Oriented Programming Model directly in the hardware to serve as a base to exploit object-level parallelism, speculation and heterogeneous computing. Towards this goal, we present ...

Machine Learning (ML) is making a strong resurgence in tune with the massive generation of unstructured data which in turn requires massive computational resources. Due to the inherently compute and power-intensive structure ...

Modern out-of-order processors tolerate long latency memory operations by supporting a large number of in-flight instructions. This is particularly useful in numerical applications where branch speculation is normally not ...

Dramatic environmental and economic impact of the ever increasing power and energy consumption of modern computing devices in data centers is now a critical challenge. On the one hand, designers use technology scaling as ...
