Memory accesses continue to represent a major performance bottleneck and much remains to be done to tolerate their latencies. A large body of work exists that presents load-value prediction as an effective means to hide some of the memory latency. To increase the prediction accuracy and hence the performance, researchers have proposed more complex and larger predictor designs. This paper re-eva...

Panoramic cameras have become popular because they provide impressive and immerse experience of the scene and allow several interesting applications. Among the large variation of panoramic camera systems, we have focused on concentric panoramic imaging with a frame camera. In order to establish the concentric image acquisition, the camera mount must be calibrated so that the projection centre o...

This paper describes a method of analysis for de tecting and minimizing memory latency using a di rected data dependency graph produced from a com piler These results are applicable to the develop ment of methods for the optimal generation of instruc tion threads to be executed on a multi threaded data driven architecture The resulting runtime reductions are accomplished by minimizing memory ac...

Traveling waves have been well documented in the ongoing, and more recently also in the evoked EEG. In the present study we investigate what kind of physiological process might be responsible for inducing an evoked traveling wave. We used a semantic judgment task which already proved useful to study evoked traveling alpha waves that coincide with the appearance of the P1 component. We found tha...

by new advancements in vehicle manufacturing vehicle quality evaluation and assurance has become a more critical issue. in present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. the method is similar to classical multilevel tpa methods but has distinct differences. the method is named vivs which stands for vehicle interior vibration s...
