  2. 1. Brain-based teaching : behavioral and neuro-cognitive evidence for the power of test-enhanced learning

    Author : Carola Wiklund-Hörnqvist; Bert Jonsson; Lars Nyberg; Linnea Karlsson; Jeffrey D. Karpicke; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; learning; memory; memory processes; the testing effect; test-enhanced learning; retrieval practice; evidence-based teaching methods; neuro-cognitive processes; working memory; memory strength; semantic elaboration; Psychology; psykologi;

    Abstract : A primary goal of education is the acquisition of durable knowledge which challenges the use of efficient pedagogical methods of how to best facilitate learning. Research in cognitive psychology has demonstrated that repeated testing during the learning phase improves performance on later retention tests compared to restudy of material. READ MORE

  4. 2. Architecture Support and Scalability Analysis of Memory Consistency Models in Network-on-Chip based Systems

    Author : Abdul Naeem; Axel Jantsch; Zhonghai Lu; Jari Nurmi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Memory consistency; Protected release consistency; Distributed shared memory; Network-on-Chip; Scalability;

    Abstract : The shared memory systems should support parallelization at the computation (multi-core), communication (Network-on-Chip, NoC) and memory architecture levels to exploit the potential performance benefits. These parallel systems supporting shared memory abstraction both in the general purpose and application specific domains are confronting the critical issue of memory consistency. READ MORE

  5. 3. Caches, Transactions and Memories : Models, Coherence and Consistency

    Author : Yunyun Zhu; Parosh Abdulla; Mohamed Faouzi Atig; Ahmed Rezine; Bengt Jonsson; Riadh Robbana; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cache coherence protocol; transactional memory; weak memory model; model checking; parameterized system; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Computers have brought us inestimable convenience in recent years. We have become dependent on them and more sensitive to their performance. During the past decades, we have been trying to improve program efficiency. The invention of multi-core systems is regarded as the new era of boosting performance of computer programs. READ MORE
