  1. 6. Adaptive Computing based on FPGA Run-time Reconfigurability

    Författare :Ming Liu; Lu Zhonghai; Jantsch Axel; Zipf Peter; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adaptive computing; FPGA partial reconfiguration; Information technology; Informationsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In the past two decades, FPGA has been witnessed from its restricted use as glue logic towards real System-on-Chip (SoC) platforms. Profiting from the great development on semiconductor and IC technologies, the programmability of FPGAs enables themselves wide adoption in all kinds of aspects of embedded designs. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Approximate Dynamic Programming with Applications

    Författare :Andreas Wernrud; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis studies approximate optimal control of nonlinear systems. Particular attention is given to global solutions and to the computation of approximately optimal feedback controllers. The solution to an optimal control problem is characterized by the optimal value function. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Approximation and Compression Techniques to Enhance Performance of Graphics Processing Units

    Författare :Alexandra Angerd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Compression; Approximate Computing; Register File; Machine Learning; Floating-Point Precision; Microarchitecture; GPU;

    Sammanfattning : A key challenge in modern computing systems is to access data fast enough to fully utilize the computing elements in the chip. In Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), the performance is often constrained by register file size, memory bandwidth, and the capacity of the main memory. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Lossy and Lossless Compression Techniques to Improve the Utilization of Memory Bandwidth and Capacity

    Författare :Albin Eldstål-Ahrens; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Approximate Computing; Compression; Memory Systems;

    Sammanfattning : Main memory is a critical resource in modern computer systems and is in increasing demand. An increasing number of on-chip cores and specialized accelerators improves the potential processing throughput but also calls for higher data rates and greater memory capacity. LÄS MER

  5. 10. An Automated and Controlled Numerical Precision Reduction Framework for GPUs

    Författare :Alexandra Angerd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microarchitecture; Floating-Point Precision; Approximate Computing; Register File; GPU;

    Sammanfattning : Reducing the precision of floating-point values is an effective approach to achieve higher performance as well as higher energy-efficiency. This is especially true for GPUs, since many of its common tasks are inherently insensitive to precision-reduction. LÄS MER
