Visualisation of high-resolution 3D images on a web application

Matthieu François Edgard Rudelle

The web is a complicated world where users are demanding and where small optimizations can make a big difference. Users want the information fast, but they also want the best quality. In terms of images, there is a well documented solution to that; Virtual ...

Fold-based fusion as a library: a generative programming pearl

Sandro Stucki, Manohar Jonnalagedda

Fusion is a program optimisation technique commonly implemented using special-purpose compiler support. In this paper, we present an alternative approach, implementing fold-based fusion as a standalone library. We use staging to compose operations on folds ...

Better Loop Fusion for LMS

Véra Salvisberg

This is my master thesis done at PPL in Stanford under the supervision of Prof. Kunle Olukotun. It improved LMS, a framework for embedding DSLs (domain-specific languages) into Scala which features many general optimizations that can be used by any DSLs fo ...

Surgical Precision JIT Compilers

Tiark Rompf, Hassan Chafi

Just-in-time (JIT) compilation of running programs provides more optimization opportunities than offline compilation. Modern JIT compilers, such as those in virtual machines like Oracle's HotSpot for Java or Google's V8 for JavaScript, rely on dynamic prof ...

Abstraction without regret in database systems building: a manifesto

Christoph Koch

It has been said that all problems in computer science can be solved by adding another level of indirection, except for performance problems, which are solved by removing levels of indirection. Compilers are our tools for removing levels of indirection aut ...

Scala AST Persistence

Adrien Ghosn, Eugene Burmako, Mathieu Baptiste Demarne

The Scala compiler uses ASTs (abstract syntax trees) as an intermediate representation before generating bytecode. With the development of Scala macros which expand trees at compile time, being able to access, modify and recompose ASTs within the compilati ...

Delite: A Compiler Architecture for Performance-Oriented Embedded Domain-Specific Languages

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Hassan Chafi

Developing high-performance software is a difficult task that requires the use of low-level, architecture-specific programming models (e.g., OpenMP for CMPs, CUDA for GPUs, MPI for clusters). It is typically not possible to write a single application that ...

Spiral in Scala: Towards the Systematic Construction of Generators for Performance Libraries

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Alen Stojanov

Program generators for high performance libraries are an appealing solution to the recurring problem of porting and optimizing code with every new processor generation, but only few such generators exist to date. This is due to not only the difficulty of t ...

Optimized MEGA-SPECIAL for in vivo glutamine detection in the rat brain at 14.1 T

Rolf Gruetter, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Mélanie Craveiro

Glutamine has multiple roles in brain metabolism and its concentration can be altered in various pathological conditions. An accurate knowledge of its concentration is therefore highly desirable to monitor and study several brain disorders in vivo. However ...

Cyme: A Library Maximizing SIMD Computation on User-Defined Containers

Felix Schürmann, Timothée Ewart

This paper presents Cyme, a C++ library aiming at abstracting the usage of SIMD instructions while maximizing the usage of the underlying hardware. Unlike similar efforts such as Boost.simd or VC, Cyme provides generic high level containers to the users wh ...
