چکیده
MATLAB is one of the most popular languages for desktop numerical computations as well as for signal and image processing applications. Applying parallel processing techniques to improve performance of MATLAB codes has been the goal of many recent works. Most current frameworks require the user to specify parallelism and/or information regarding type/shape of the variables, thereby sacriicing the user friendliness which is one of the most popular MATLAB features. Other systems work on a restricted subset of MATLAB, thereby limiting the class of applications MATLAB can support. We present a run-time system capable of executing MATLAB code in parallel without any user intervention. The runtime system performs automatic parallelization and type/shape inference of the code at runtime. A unique feature of the runtime system is its capability to automatically adapt to changes in the underlying architecture , making it particularly useful for systems where predicting performance statically is diicult. We present experimental results obtained for the runtime system running on SGI Origin2000 shared memory multiprocessor.

متن کاملAnalytical evaluation of an innovative decision-making algorithm for VM live migration
In order to achieve the virtual machines live migration, the two "pre-copy" and "post-copy" strategies are presented. Each of these strategies, depending on the operating conditions of the machine, may perform better than the other. In this article, a new algorithm is presented that automatically decides how the virtual machine live migration takes place. In this approach, the virtual machine m...
متن کاملDynamic Adaptive Power Management For — And By — A Java Virtual Machine
Traditionally, adaptive power management has been performed at the operating system (OS) level. We present a dynamic adaptive power-management plugin for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that improves the precision of power management decisions by utilizing fine-grained high-level program state information available to the virtual machine, but often invisible to the OS. In contrast to power manag...
متن کاملEfficient virtual machine support of runtime structural reflection
Increasing trends towards adaptive, distributed, generative and pervasive software have made object-oriented dynamically typed languages become increasingly popular. These languages offer dynamic software evolution by means of reflection, facilitating the development of dynamic systems. Unfortunately, this dynamism commonly imposes a runtime performance penalty. In this paper, we describe how t...
متن کاملA Versioning Approach to VM Live Migration
In the context of virtual machines live migration, two strategies called “pre-copy” and “post-copy” have already been presented; but each of these strategies works well only in some circumstances. In this paper, we have a brief presentation of QAVNS and then introduce a new approach which is based on the concept of "informational object", assigning QAVNS-scheme-revision number, and observing th...
