Mapping Irregular Applications to DIVA, a PIM-based Data-Intensive Architecture
Mary Hall,Peter M. Kogge,Jeff Koller,Pedro C. Diniz,Jacqueline Chame,Jeffrey Draper,Jeff LaCoss,John J. Granacki,Jay B. Brockman,Apoorv Srivastava,William C. Athas,Vincent W. Freeh,Jaewook Shin,Joonseok Park +13 more
TL;DR: The potential of PIM-based architectures in accelerating the performance of three irregular computations, sparse conjugate gradient, a natural-join database operation and an object-oriented database query are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Commutativity analysis: a new analysis technique for parallelizing compilers
Martin Rinard,Pedro C. Diniz +1 more
TL;DR: This article presents a new analysis technique, commutativity analysis, for automatically parallelizing computations that manipulate dynamic, pointer-based data structures and presents performance results for the generated parallel code running on the Stanford DASH machine.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A compiler approach to fast hardware design space exploration in FPGA-based systems
TL;DR: An automated approach to hardware design space exploration, through a collaboration between parallelizing compiler technology and high-level synthesis tools, that automatically explores the large design spaces resulting from the application of several program transformations commonly used in application-specific hardware designs.
