  Parallel-FST: Feature Selection Library for Clusters

  Repository: parallel-fst
  Specific versions: jpdc22 [code, dockerhub], jpdc24 [code], cc26 [code]

  Parallel-FST is a collection of feature selection libraries. Currently, it incorporates:

  • CLI-FEAST, a CLI wrapper for the original sequential methods of FEAST.
  • MPI-FEAST, a hybrid MPI/multithreaded implementation for multicore clusters (CLI application).
  • cuFEAST, a CUDA implementation for single-GPU nodes (C++ library and CLI application).

  You can find here some GIFs that show the feature selection process when applying MIM, JMI and mRMR to the MNIST dataset.

  pyCacheSimulator

  Repository: pycachesim
  PyPI package: pyCacheSimulator

  pyCacheSimulator is a Python library designed to simulate cache behavior and explore the effects of different configurations, replacement algorithms, and write policies. It allows to model multi-level cache hierarchies, track memory references, and analyze cache statistics, making it a valuable tool for both teaching and learning about computer architecture.

• bSSG

  Repository: staticsitegenerator
  PyPI package: bssg

  bSSG is a Python static site generator based on staticjinja with support for templates (Jinja), translations (pyBabel), optimized thumbnail generation (Pillow), and build size minimization by excluding unreferenced files. This webpage is created with bSSG.

Short Bio

Bieito Beceiro received the B.S. in Computer Science, the M.S. in High Performance Computing (HPC), and the Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Universidade da Coruña (UDC), Spain, in 2020, 2021, and 2026, respectively.

His work focuses on the development and optimization of high-performance software for GPU architectures and distributed-memory systems, with experience in C/C++, CUDA, and Python. He has also developed software across a range of areas, including GPU rendering, web and cloud infrastructure, mobile applications, and developer tools.
