A Study of Data Compression and Efficient Memory Utilization in Multiprocessor and Distributed Systems

摘要

Two organizations of interleaved memory system have been designed. The intelligent memory controller applies the scheduling algorithm to memory access requests. Three scheduling algorithms have been proposed and their performances are studied both theoretically and empirically. In data compression, the existing techniques have been classified into four areas. A multi-level compression scheme is proposed so that data is compressed through a set of cascaded stages. (Author)
