An abbreviated version of the chapter above . Unpublished Jason Riedy and Rich Vuduc . We picked apart the Tera MTA and found it somewhat impressive, but still in need of tuning. Some aspects, like the word locking, clearly had debugging code enabled. Our measurements also detail granularity decisions that still need to be made despite the marketting literature.
Tiny sensors can only carry tiny power supplies.
Multiple processors can save power, but it is far more important to reduce overhead. This covers the basic algorithms for solving the linear assignment problem.
