Introducing our EDUCache simulator [1] in the Computer Architecture and Organization course increased the students willingness to learn more details about CPU cache memory. A positive experience of students interest to work on laboratory exercises with our EDUCache simulator lead us to develop an EDUCacheIC, a new interactive and collaborative version of EDUCache simulator. EDUCacheIC offers the students...
Teaching computer architecture requires a lot of effort by the instructor. Introduction of simulators can improve the teaching process and increases student willingness and easier ability to learn the material. There are many visual simulators that cover courses about computer architecture and design. In this paper we present our EDUCache simulator as a supporting tool in the process of understanding...
Matrix-Matrix multiplication (MMM) is widely used algorithm in today's computations and researches. Many techniques exist to speed up its execution. In this paper, we analyze the performance of MMM varying matrix size in order to determine its behavior and the region where it provides the best performance. We also determine the best speedup and efficiency in parallel implementation for different CPU...
Dense matrix-matrix multiplication algorithm is widely used in large scientific applications, and often it is an important factor of the overall performance of the application. Therefore, optimizing this algorithm, both for parallel and serial execution would give an overall performance boost. In this paper we overview the most used dense matrix multiplication optimization techniques applicable for...
EDUCache simulator [1] is developed as a learning tool for undergraduate students enrolled the Computer Architecture and Organization course. It gives the explanations and details of the processor and exploitation of its cache memory. This paper shows a set of laboratory exercises and several case studies with examples on how to use the EDUCache simulator in the learning process. These hands-on laboratory...
