Recent trend has made it clear that the processor makers are committed to the multicore chip designs. The number of cores per chip is increasing, while there is little or no increase in the clock speed. This parallelism ...

The left fusiform gyrus is hypothesized to be selectively involved in visual word processing. Nevertheless, the particular components of reading to which this area responds is the subject of much controversy. In Experiment ...

An analytical closed-form solution has been developed for steady-state lateral response of concrete-face rockfill dams built in rectangular canyons. The canyon is assumed to be rigid, while the dam is idealized as a ...

Recent research show that adaptive compiler can produce consistent improvement over a traditional fixed-sequence compiler by conducting feedback-directed searches for good compilation sequences for specific programs, ...
