In this work we present a novel method to determine the optimal parameters of a router architecture when certain router performance constraints are given. The total financial expense, or cost, is the optimality criterion. We introduce a general, essentiall ...
This paper presents the OpenDF framework and recalls that dataflow programming was once invented to address the problem of parallel computing. We discuss the problems with an imperative style, von Neumann programs, and present what we believe are the advan ...
This paper addresses the problem of streaming packetized media over a lossy packet network, with sender-driven (re)transmissions and receiver acknowledgments. It extends the markovian formulation of the rate- distortion optimized (RaDiO) streaming framewor ...
Leveraging the full power of multicore processors demands new tools and new thinking from the software industry.
Concurrency has long been touted as the "next big thing" and "the way of the future," but for the past 30 years, mainstream software developme ...
We address the design of complex monolithic systems, where processing cores generate and consume a varying and large amount of data, thus bringing the communication links to the edge of congestion. Typical applications are in the area of multi-media proces ...
This paper presents a new global design methodology capable to bridge the gap between an abstract specification level and a heterogeneous reconfigurable architecture level. The Epicure contribution is the result of a joint study on abstraction/refinement m ...
Dynamically allocating computing nodes to parallel applications is a promising technique for improving the utilization of cluster resources. Detailed simulations can help identify allocation strategies and problem decomposition parameters that increase the ...
The development of more processing demanding applications on the Internet (video broadcasting) on one hand and the popularity of recent devices at the user level (digital cameras, wireless videophones, ...) on the other hand introduce challenges at several ...
