As hardware evolves, so do the needs of applications. To increase the performance of an application,
there exist two well-known approaches. These are scaling up an application, using a larger multi-core
platform, or scaling out, by distributing work to mul ...
Simulations of the electrical activity of networks of morphologically-detailed neuron models allow for a better understanding of the brain.
Short time to solution is critical in order to study long biological processes such as synaptic plasticity and learn ...
Today's continued increase in demand for processing power, despite the slowdown of Moore's law, has led to an increase in processor count, which has resulted in energy consumption and distribution problems. To address this, there is a growing trend toward ...
The demise of Moore's Law and Dennard scaling has resulted in diminishing performance gains for general-purpose processors, and so has prompted a surge in academic and commercial interest for hardware accelerators.Specialized hardware has already redefined ...
Verification and testing of hardware heavily relies on cycle-accurate simulation of RTL.As single-processor performance is growing only slowly, conventional, single-threaded RTL simulation is becoming impractical for increasingly complex chip designs and s ...
Domain-decomposition (DD) methods are used in most, if not all, modern parallel implementations of finite element modeling software. In the solver stage, the algebraic additive Schwarz (AAS) domain-decomposition preconditioner represents a fundamental comp ...
RePlAce is a state-of-the-art prototype of a flat, analytic, and nonlinear global cell placement algorithm, which models a placement instance as an electrostatic system with positively charged objects. It can handle large-scale standard-cell and mixed-cell ...
This paper describes a deterministic and parallel implementation of the VPR routability-driven router for FPGAs. We considered two parallefization strategies: (1) routing multiple nets in parallel; and (2) routing one net at a time, while parallelizing the ...
We propose a novel, minimally intrusive approach to adding fault tolerance to existing complex scientific simulation codes, used for addressing a broad range of time-dependent problems on the next generation of supercomputers. Exascale systems have the pot ...
State-of-the-art simulations of detailed neurons follow the Bulk Synchronous Parallel execution model. Execution is divided in equidistant communication intervals, with parallel neurons interpolation and collective communication guiding synchronization. Su ...
