In parallel computing environments such as HPC clusters and the Grid, data-intensive applications involve large overhead costs due to a concentration of access to the files on co...
Abstract. The performance of shared-memory (OpenMP) implementations of three different PDE solver kernels representing finite difference methods, finite volume methods, and spectra...
Grid computing has reached the stage where deployments are mature and many collaborations run in production mode. Mature Grid deployments offer the opportunity for revisiting and ...
