Abstract

In this paper we examine text indexing on the Cell Broadband Engine™ (Cell/B.E.), an emerging workload on an emerging multicore architecture. The Cell Broadband Engine is a microprocessor jointly developed by Sony Computer Entertainment, Toshiba, and IBM (herein, we refer to it simply as the “Cell”).
