    • A Novel Compiler Support for Automatic Parallelization on Multicore Systems 

      Andión, José M.; Arenaz Silva, Manuel; Rodríguez, Gabriel; Touriño, Juan (Elsevier, 2013-09)
      [Abstract] The widespread use of multicore processors is not a consequence of significant advances in parallel programming. In contrast, multicore processors arise due to the complexity of building power-efficient, ...
    • An Inspector-Executor Algorithm for Irregular Assignment Parallelization 

      Arenaz Silva, Manuel; Touriño, Juan; Doallo, Ramón (Springer, 2004)
      [Abstract] A loop with irregular assignment computations contains loop-carried output data dependences that can only be detected at run-time. In this paper, a load-balanced method based on the inspector-executor model is ...
    • Automated and accurate cache behavior analysis for codes with irregular access patterns 

      Andrade, Diego; Arenaz Silva, Manuel; Fraguela, Basilio B.; Touriño, Juan; Doallo, Ramón (John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2007-04-03)
      [Abstract] The memory hierarchy plays an essential role in the performance of current computers, so good analysis tools that help in predicting and understanding its behavior are required. Analytical modeling is the ideal ...

      [Abstract] The use of GPUs for general purpose computation has increased dramatically in the past years due to the rising demands of computing power and their tremendous computing capacity at low cost. Hence, new programming ...
    • Parallelization of shallow water simulations on current multi-threaded systems 

      Lobeiras Blanco, Jacobo; Viñas Buceta, Moisés; Amor, Margarita; Fraguela, Basilio B.; Arenaz Silva, Manuel; García Rodríguez, José Antonio; Castro, M.J. (SAGE Journals, 2013-11)
      [Abstract]: In this work, several parallel implementations of a numerical model of pollutant transport on a shallow water system are presented. These parallel implementations are developed in two phases. First, the sequential ...
