  2. 1. Low Power Techniques for Fast CMOS Buffer Memories

    Author : Jonas Alowersson; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Systems engineering; low-power; throughput; buffer memory; CMOS; SRAM; computer technology; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : The thesis deals with circuit-level aspects of CMOS buffer SRAMs where the data throughput rate is a more important metric than access time or storage capacity. One aspect is the increased write cycle related power consumption that is the consequence of a high write ratio combined with a long word-length. READ MORE

  4. 2. Techniques to Reduce Inefficiencies in Hardware Transactional Memory Systems

    Author : Mridha Mohammad Waliullah; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intermediate checkpoint; conflicting address prediction; Bloom filter; conflict resolution; multiprocessor; speculative buffer overflow; parallel programming; 5C model for cache-misses; transactional memory; conflict classification; starvation;

    Abstract : The recent trend of multicore CPUs pushes for major changes in software development. Traditional single-threaded applications can no longer get a sustainable performance boost from this new generation of CPUs that consist of multiple processors (cores). READ MORE

  5. 3. Verification of Software under Relaxed Memory

    Author : Carl Leonardsson; Bengt Jonsson; Parosh Aziz Abdulla; Mohamed Faouzi Atig; Viktor Vafeiadis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; verification; relaxed memory models; Datavetenskap; Computer Science;

    Abstract : The work covered in this thesis concerns automatic analysis of correctness of parallel programs running under relaxed memory models.When a parallel program is compiled and executed on a modern architecture, various optimizations may cause it to behave in unexpected ways. READ MORE

  6. 4. Schemes to Improve the Efficiency of Hardware Transactional Memory Systems

    Author : Mridha Mohammad Waliullah; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transactional memory; parallel programming; chip-multiprocessor; multiprocessor;

    Abstract : In todays ubiquitous multiprocessor environment parallel programming becomesan important tool to reap the maximum gain. But the traditional lock-based parallelprogramming model is not attracting average programmers as the level of expertiseneeded is very high. READ MORE

  7. 5. Modalities of Mind : Modality-specific and nonmodality-specific aspects of working memory for sign and speech

    Author : Mary Rudner; Jerker Rönnberg; Alan Baddeley; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cognition; sign language; working memory; fMRI; PET; disability research; Korttidsminne; teckenspråk; Cognitive science; Kognitionsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Language processing is underpinned by working memory and while working memory for signed languages has been shown to display some of the characteristics of working memory for speech-based languages, there are a range of anomalous effects related to the inherently visuospatial modality of signed languages. On the basis of these effects, four research questions were addressed in a series of studies:1. READ MORE
