Introduces queuing network models for the performance analysis of SPMD (single-program, multiple-data) applications executed on general-purpose parallel architectures such as MIMD (multiple-input, ...

The MIMD (Multiple Instruction, Multiple Data) execution model is more flexible than SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data), but SIMD hardware is more scalable. GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) ...

In today’s automobiles, manufacturers competitively blend performance and custom features with cutting-edge safety technology. In today’s automobiles, manufacturers competitively blend ...

However, SIMD efficiency can be reduced due to the divergent branching and memory access patterns that are common in ray tracing codes. This paper explores an alternative approach using MIMD ...

This paper introduces queuing network models for the performance analysis of SPMD applications executed on general-purpose parallel architectures such as MIMD and clusters of workstations. The models ...
