TL;DR: A potentially cheaper and more power-efficient approach to building high-performance interconnects by proposing a two-network interconnect: An Optical Circuit Switching (OCS) network handling long-lived bulk data transfers, using optical switches; and a secondary lower-bandwidth Electronic Packet switching network.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a simplified case study of an institutional building and used a dynamic life cycle assessment (DLCA) approach and illustrates the potential importance of the method using a simplified Case Study of an Institutional Building.

TL;DR: An experimental prototype of a software system that will take MATLAB descriptions of various applications, and automatically map them on to a distributed computing environment consisting of embedded processors, digital signal processors and field-programmable gale arrays built from commercial off-the-shelf components is implemented.

TL;DR: This paper presents an architecture that combines VLIW (Very Large Instruction Word) processing with the capability to introduce application specific customized instructions and complex hardware functions that allows for an overall speedup of 30X and 12X on average for signal processing benchmarks from the MediaBench.

TL;DR: The Center for Sustainable Landscapes (CSL) as mentioned in this paper is a three-story, 24,350 square foot educational, research, and administrative office in Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
