Abstract: A method for running application software for a mobile device by virtualizing a mobile device operating system (OS); running a virtual instance of the mobile device OS with the application software on a server on the cloud; and rendering on the server and sending a display image for the mobile device screen to be displayed on the mobile device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for scheduling jobs to manycore nodes in a cluster include selecting a job to run according to the job's wait time and the job's expected execution time; sending job requirements to all nodes in a cluster, where each node includes a manycore processor; determining at each node whether said node has sufficient resources to ever satisfy the job requirements and, if no node has sufficient resources, deleting the job; creating a list of nodes that have sufficient free resources at a present time to satisfy the job requirements; and assigning the job to a node, based on a difference between an expected execution time and associated confidence value for each node and a hypothetical fastest execution time and associated hypothetical maximum confidence value.

Abstract: A method is disclosed to manage a multi-processor system with one or more manycore devices, by managing real-time bag-of-tasks applications for a cluster, wherein each task runs on a single server node, and uses the offload programming model, and wherein each task has a deadline and three specific resource requirements: total processing time, a certain number of manycore devices and peak memory on each device; when a new task arrives, querying each node scheduler to determine which node can best accept the task and each node scheduler responds with an estimated completion time and a confidence level, wherein the node schedulers use an urgency-based heuristic to schedule each task and its offloads; responding to an accept/reject query phase, wherein the cluster scheduler send the task requirements to each node and queries if the node can accept the task with an estimated completion time and confidence level; and scheduling tasks and offloads using a aging and urgency-based heuristic, wherein the aging guarante

Abstract: A method is disclosed to manage a multi-processor system with one or more multiple-core coprocessors by intercepting coprocessor offload infrastructure application program interface (API) calls; scheduling user processes to run on one of the coprocessors; scheduling offloads within user processes to run on one of the coprocessors; and affinitizing offloads to predetermined cores within one of the coprocessors by selecting and allocating cores to an offload, and obtaining a thread-to-core mapping from a user.

Abstract: A runtime method is disclosed that dynamically sets up core containers and thread-to-core affinity for processes running on manycore coprocessors. The method is completely transparent to user applications and incurs low runtime overhead. The method is implemented within a user-space middleware that also performs scheduling and resource management for both offload and native applications using the manycore coprocessors.

Abstract: A method for code compression of a program, the method comprising separating code from data. Software transformations necessary to make address mappings between compressed and uncompressed space are introduced into the code. Statistics are obtained about frequency of occurrence instructions, wherein said statistics include frequency of occurrence of two consecutive instructions. The program is parsed to identify occurrence of instructions or instruction pairs. The identified instructions are replaced with an address to a compressed bus-word table. An address mapping is generated from uncompressed address to compressed addresses.
