Two papers accepted to ISCA 2015: Congratulations Indrani and Jin!

Congratulations to Indrani and Jin for their papers accepted by ISCA 2015!

Indrani’s paper “Harmonia: Balancing Compute and Memory Power in High Performance GPUs”, coauthored with Wei N. Huang, Manish Arora and Sudhakar Yalamanchili, addresses the problem of efficiently managing the relative power demands of a high performance GPU and its memory subsystem. This work was collaborated with AMD Research.

Jin’s paper “Dynamic Thread Block Launch: A Lightweight Execution Mechanism to Support
Irregular Applications on GPUs”, coauthored with Norm Rubin, Albert Sidelnik and Sudhakar Yalamanchili, proposes a new mechanism to extend the current bulk synchronous parallel model underlying the current GPU execution model by supporting dynamic spawning of lightweight thread blocks. This work was collaborated with NVIDIA Research.
