Code cloning is not only assumed to inflate maintenance costs but also considered defect-
prone as inconsistent changes to code duplicates can lead to unexpected behavior …

Localization and mapping in unknown environments becomes more difficult as the
complexity of the environment increases. With conventional techniques, the cost of …

In this paper we investigate mapping stream programs (ie, programs written in a streaming
style for streaming architectures such as Imagine and Raw) onto a general-purpose CPU …

GPUs are becoming first-class compute citizens and increasingly support programmability-
enhancing features such as shared virtual memory and hardware cache coherence. This …

Trends in microprocessors of increasing die size and clock speed and decreasing feature
sizes have fueled rapidly increasing performance. However, the limited improvements in …

An image capturing device is capable of capturing and encoding image data so as to output
a streaming media file from the device. Vector information derived from the captured image …

Stream architecture is a novel microprocessor architecture with wide application potential.
But as for whether it can be used efficiently in scientific computing, many issues await further …

In this paper, we present a novel and systematic approach for the design of shared memory
architectures in the case of application-specific multiprocessor system-on-chip. This paper …

Stream programming is currently being pushed as a way to expose concurrency and
separate communication from computation. Since there are many stream languages and …

Stream processors are high-performance programmable processors optimized to run media
applications. Recent work has shown these processors to be more area-and energy-efficient …
