Die parallele Programmierung, d.h. die Entwicklung nebenläufiger Systeme, gewinnt auch außerhalb von Hochleistungsrechenzentren immer mehr an Bedeutung. Insbesondere wird die volle Leistungsstärke moderner Multicore-Rechner nur dann erreicht werden können, wenn die Programme den angebotenen Parallelismus auch nutzen. Allerdings pflegt die parallele Programmierung in heutigen Curricula eher ein ...

Optimized Runtime Systems for MapReduce Applications in Multi-core Clusters

This paper describes the design of a fast multi-core library for the cryptographic Tate pairing over supersingular elliptic curves. For the computation of the reduced modified Tate pairing over F3509 , we report calculation times of just 2.94 ms and 1.87 ms on the Intel Core2 and Intel Core i7 architectures, respectively. We also try to answer one important design question that surges: how many...

In this paper, we present a new method called setvectors to predict cache contention introduced by co-scheduled applications on a multicore processor system. Additionally, we propose a new metric to compare cache contention prediction methods. Applying this metric, we demonstrate that our setvector method predicts cache contention with about the same accuracy as the most accurate stateof-the-ar...
