TL;DR: It is shown that the Cell/B.E.E., or Cell Broadband Engine, processor can outperform other modern processors by approximately an order of magnitude and by even more in some cases.

TL;DR: Several compiler techniques that aim at automatically generating high quality codes over a wide range of heterogeneous parallelism available on the CELL processor are described and results indicate that significant speedup can be achieved with a high level of support from the compiler.

TL;DR: This paper outlines a new architecture, the Active Memory Cube, which reduces the energy of computation significantly by performing computation in the memory module, rather than moving data through large memory hierarchies to the processor core.

TL;DR: The goal in developing this compiler has been to enhance programmability while continuing to provide high performance, and the results of the compiler techniques, including SPE optimization, automatic code generation, single source parallelization, and partitioning are presented.

TL;DR: This work explores supporting OpenMP on the Cell processor, and develops new components in the XL compiler and a new runtime library to implement the OpenMP memory model.
