Data analytics is undergoing a revolution in many scientific domains, and demands cost-effective parallel data analysis techniques. Traditional Java-based Big Data processing tools like Hadoop MapReduce are designed for commodity CPUs. In contrast, emerging manycore processors like the Xeon Phi have an order of magnitude greater computation power and memory bandwidth. To harness their computing capabilities,...
Our primary objective of this paper was to extend a previously published 2-D coupled subsample tracking algorithm for 3-D speckle tracking in the framework of ultrasound breast strain elastography. In order to overcome heavy computational cost, we investigated the use of a graphic processing unit (GPU) to accelerate the 3-D coupled subsample speckle tracking method. The performance of the proposed...
Idle periods on different processes of Message Passing applications are unavoidable. While the origin of idle periods on a single process is well understood as the effect of system and architectural random delays, yet it is unclear how these idle periods propagate from one process to another. It is important to understand idle period propagation in Message Passing applications as it allows application...
The word-level sentiment analysis is an essential issue in opinion mining. One challenge in this field is that not so many lexical items as expected have been labeled with sentimental opinions, especially in Chinese. There are two ways of rating words: one is manual marking which costs lots of resources, energy and time; the other is machine marking which is efficient, convenient and time-saving....
Nekbone is a proxy application of Nek5000, a scalable Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code used for modelling incompressible flows. The Nekbone mini-application is used by several international co-design centers to explore new concepts in computer science and to evaluate their performance. We present the design and implementation of a new communication kernel in the Nekbone mini-application with...
