Interprocess Communication in Operating Systems

In operating systems, processes may execute independently or cooperatively, affecting or being affected by other processes. Interprocess communication allows processes to share data and information for reasons like information sharing, computation speedup, modularity, and convenience. There are two

Understanding Algorithmic Complexity Measures and the Master Method

In this study, we explore key concepts in algorithmic complexity, including recurrences, matrix multiplication, merge sort, and tableau construction. We delve into the Master Method for solving recurrences, examining Cases 1, 2, and 3, and providing solutions for each scenario. Additionally, we disc

ShiDianNao: Advancing Vision Processing Closer to Sensors

Neural network accelerators are achieving high energy efficiency and performance for recognition and mining applications. To overcome memory bandwidth constraints, the proposal suggests mapping the entire CNN into SRAM and moving closer to sensors to minimize memory access for I/O. Placing the CNN a
