Masters Theses
Multicore processors are replacing most of the single core processors nowadays.
Current trends show that there will be increasing numbers of cores on a single chip in the coming future. However, programming multicore processors remains bug prone and less productive. Thus, making use of a runtime to schedule tasks on multicore processor hides most of the complexities of parallel programming to improve productivity. QUARK is one of the runtimes available for the multicore processors. This work looks at identifying and solving performance bottlenecks for QUARK on the shared memory architecture. The problem of finding bottlenecks is divided into two parts, …
