The new landscape of parallel computer architecture

The New Landscape of Parallel Computer Architecture

The past few years has seen a sea change in computer architecture that will impact every facet of our society as every electronic device from cell phone to supercomputer will need to confront parallelism of unprecedented scale. Whereas the conventional multicore approach (2, 4, and even 8 cores) adopted by the computing industry will eventually hit a performance plateau, the highest performance...

Forward Position Kinematics of a Parallel Manipulator with New Architecture

The forward position kinematics (FPK) of a parallel manipulator with new architecture supposed to be used as a moving mechanism in a flight simulator project is discussed in this paper. The closed form solution for the FPK problem of the manipulator is first determined. It has, then, been shown that there are at most 24 solutions for FPK problem. This result has been verified by using other tec...

An Architecture of Highly Parallel Computer AP1000

We have developed a highly parallel computer with distributed memory called the AP1000. The system consists of 64 to 1024 processing elements and three independent networks called Torus network (T-net), Broadcast network (B-net), and Synchronization network (S-net). The design goal for the AP1000 is to attain low latency, high throughput communication. To reduce the overall communication latenc...

the impact of computer-assisted language learning on achievement motivation of high school students

چکیده انگیزه دلیل اصلی رفتارهای ما است. به نظر می رسد انگیزه جزء جدایی ناپذیر فرایند یادگیری باشد. ارزش ذاتی موفقیت تمایل به پیشرفت را در یادگیرنده ایجاد میکند. به عبارت ساده این تمایل انگیزه پیشرفت نامیده میشود. انگیزه پیشرفت را میتوان در احساس یادگیرنده هنگام چالش با درس های مدرسه، لذت انجام فعالیت درسی، یا حس کشف پاسخ مشاهده کرد.حتی ممکن است انگیزه پیشرفت را در تلاش یادگیرنده برای جلب تایید...
