Distributed memory is a term used in computer science to describe a multiprocessor
computer system in which each processor has its own private memory. Computational jobs …

Because of the merits of non-destruction, high speed, and high sensitivity, optical techniques
have been developed for experimental mechanics and optical measurement. In commercial …

Technological advancements in the silicon industry, as predicted by Moore's law, have
enabled integration of billions of transistors on a single chip. To exploit this high transistor …

With Moore's law supplying billions of transistors on-chip, embedded systems are
undergoing a transition from single-core to multicore to exploit this high-transistor density for …

The volume of multimedia assets in collections is growing exponentially, and the retrieval of
information is becoming more complex. The indexing and retrieval of multimedia content is …

This book introduces the state-of-the-art in research in parallel and distributed embedded
systems, which have been enabled by developments in silicon technology, micro-electro …

Asymmetric multi-core processors require careful assignment of tasks to the appropriate
cores. Most of the edge computing devices are operated on Linux. However, the current …

We present a novel method to automatically generate new parallel solvers for optimization
problems, called the Virtual Savant. It applies machine learning to model a reference …

Reducing power consumption has become one of the primary challenges in chip design,
and therefore significant efforts are being devoted to find holistic solutions on power …

Burdened by their popularity, recommender systems increasingly take on larger datasets
while they are expected to deliver high quality results within reasonable time. To meet these …
