{luwan2, cdong3, dchen}@illinois.edu Enabling Hardware Support for Fast Data Relay Architectural overview: Host CPU initializes the kernel computation on our FDR-CGRA. DMA is in charge of system-level dataflow. FDR-CGRA can focus on accelerating time-consuming kernels. Processing elements: Support concurrent computation and communication with dedicated computing path and bypassing path for Fast...

Directed Energy Deposition (DED) processes are a category of Additive Manufacturing (AM) that can be combined with six degrees freedom multi-axis technologies to manufacture parts complex internal geometries without support material, while ensuring the local distance requirements. This paper provides numerical method compute such path, using both facetized file part and substrates locations as ...

This paper presents a comparative study of two well-known network simulators: OPNET Modeler and Ns2. Other studies in this area have generally been confined to just one simulator. The motivation of this paper is to provide a guide to researchers undertaking packet-level network simulations. The simulator outputs were compared to the output from a live network testbed. The experimental compariso...

The mobile-app marketplace is highly competitive. To maintain and improve the quality of their apps, developers need data about how their app is performing in the wild. The asynchronous, multi-threaded nature of mobile apps makes tracing difficult. The difficulties are compounded by the resource limitations inherent in the mobile platform. To address this challenge, we develop AppInsight, a sys...

Most query and transformation languages developed since the mid 90es for XML and semistructured data – e.g. XQuery [1], the precursors of XQuery [2], and XSLT [3] – build upon a path-oriented node selection: A node in a data item is specified in terms of a root-to-node path in the manner of the file selection languages of operating systems. Constructs inspired from the regular expression constr...

In this project, we describe a real-time transportation route selection policy with traffic considerations. It is a dynamic policy that has a global perspective of the real-time traffic status. The A* search algorithm[4] is used to find the optimal route and the traffic status is the heuristic during the search. We created a map to simulate a real-word transportation network and a traffic file ...

This tutorial introduces the LMS (least mean squares) and the RLS (recursive least-squares) algorithm for the design of adaptive transversal filters. These algorithms are applied for identification of an unknown system. Usage To make full use of this tutorial you have to 1. Download the file AdaptiveFilter.zip which contains this tutorial and the accompanying Matlab program(s). 2. Unzip Adaptiv...

In general, the FPU and processor are decoupled in the method for FPU integration, in which the communication between them requires software intervention and ultra-precision FPU is unsupported. To avoid this problem, a method based on fine-grained control for integration of FPU into the RISC processor is proposed in this paper. In terms of operand width of floating-point instructions, the metho...
