Title:

You Could Speed up Your Program by Using a Vector Processor.

Abstract:

Various social problems would be occurred in various areas, for example, crimes, luck of resources, broken of infrastructure and etc. In the cases, an integration of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) and "Big data" analysis is one of the good methods to solve such the problems. However it would take long time to analyze complicated "Big data" by general processors, because of the limit of Moore's law. Then, a concept of hetero computing is introduced to enhance speed of "Big data" processing. A FPGA, various many core processors and a vector processor are known as candidates of hetero accelerators. In this talk, the several examples of "Big data" processing that there examples can speed up by using a vector processor, are presented.
