The dawn of the laptop era presents new challenges to the computing research community. Performance is no longer the end all be all of computing research because a new, significant requirement has cropped up: reducing the power consumption and improving battery usage. The key restriction to mobility is the constant need to be near a power outlet to recharge the laptop battery. Thus, extending battery life without compromising performance is a pressing concern.
A research named as "iGreen" was proposed to stimulate power consumption awareness and behavioral change among laptop users via interactive energy-usage feedback with college students as the …

Evaluation Of Classical Inter-Process Communication Problems In Parallel Programming Languages, Arunesh Joshi
Master's Projects
It is generally believed for the past several years that parallel programming is the future of computing technology due to its incredible speed and vastly superior performance as compared to classic linear programming. However, how sure are we that this is the case? Despite its aforesaid average superiority, usually parallel-program implementations run in single-processor machines, making the parallelism almost virtual. In this case, does parallel programming still remain superior?
The purpose of this document is to research and analyze the performance, in both storage and speed, of three parallel-programming language libraries: OpenMP, OpenMPI and PThreads, along with a few other …
