• Convey HC-1 Hybrid Core Computer – The Potential of FPGAs in Numerical Simulation
• Optimized Replacement in the Configuration Layers of the Grid Alu Processor 
• Performance Engineering of an Orthogonal Matching Pursuit Algorithm for Sparse Representation of Signals on Different Architectures
• Impact of Data Sharing on CMP design: A study based on Analytical Modeling
• Traffic Prediction for NoCs using Fuzzy Logic
• GPU Acceleration of the Assembly Process in Isogeometric Analysis
• GPU Accelerated Scientific Computing: Evaluation of the NVIDIA Fermi Architecture; Elementary Kernels and Linear Solvers
