Compulsory normalization of the represented numbers is a key requirement of the floating-point standard. This requirement contributes to fundamental characteristics of the standard, such as taking the most of the precision ...

In recent years, approaches that seek to extract valuable information from large datasets have become particularly relevant in today's society. In this category, we can highlight those problems that comprise data analysis ...

Dynamic programming (DP) is often seen in inventory control to lead to optimal ordering policies. When considering stationary demand, Value Iteration (VI) may be used to derive the best policy. In this paper, our focus is ...

Abstract Recently, short-term dense trajectories features (DTF) have shown state-of-the-art results in video recognition and retrieval. However, their use has not been extensively studied on the problem of gait recognition. ...

Networked telerobots transmit data from its sensors to the remote controller. To provide guarantees on the time requirements of these systems it is mandatory to keep the transmission time delays below a given threshold, ...

In the last few years, the heterogeneous architectures have become dominant in each part of the computing industry: from heterogeneous GPU accelerators joining multi-core CPUs within the same chip, to Systems on Chip that ...

Traditional comparisons between metagenomes are often performed using reference databases as intermediary templates from which to obtain distance metrics. However, in order to fully exploit the potential of the information ...

Con la aparición de los chips multiprocesador, la industria del hardware ha pasado la responsabilidad sobre la eficiencia de las aplicaciones a la comunidad de desarrolladores de software. La gran mayoría de programadores ...

En este trabajo, proponemos una solución para permitir la ejecución de aplicaciones de tipo streaming, que constan de una serie de etapas, sobre arquitecturas heterogéneas con un multicore y una GPU integrada. Para ello, ...

We address the problem of providing support for executing single streaming applications implemented as a pipeline of stages that run on heterogeneous chips comprised of several cores and one on-chip GPU. In this paper, ...
