چکیده

Much work has been done on the problem of synthesizing a processor array from a system of recurrence equations. Some researchers limit communication to nearest neighbors in the array; others use broadcast. In many cases, neither of the above approaches result in an optimal execution time. In this paper a technique called bounded broadcast is explored whereby an element of a processor array can broadcast to a bounded number of other processors. This technique is applied to the problems of transitive closure and all-pairs shortest distance, resulting in time complexities that are smaller than those reported previously. In general, the technique can be used to design bounded broadcast systolic arrays for algorithms whose implementation can benefit from broadcasting.

Some New Results on Key Distribution Patterns and Broadcast Encryption

This paper concerns methods by which a trusted authority can distribute keys and/or broadcast a message over a network, so that each member of a privileged subset of users can compute a speciied key or decrypt the broadcast message. Moreover, this is done in such a way that no coalition is able to recover any information on a key or broadcast message they are not supposed to know. The problems ...

Throughput-optimal systolic arrays from recurrence equations

Many compute-bound software kernels have seen order-of-magnitude speedups on special-purpose accelerators built on specialized architectures such as field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). These architectures are particularly good at implementing dynamic programming algorithms that can be expressed as systems of recurrence equations, which in turn can be realized as systolic array designs. To e...
