Abstract :
Currently few mobile applications exploit the power- and performance capabilities of multi-core architectures. As the number of cores increases, the challenges become more pressing. We picked three challenges: application parallelization, performance-predictability/portability and power control for mobile devices. We tackled the challenges with our auto-parallelizing compiler and operating system enhancements.
