The I/O access patterns of many parallel applications consist of accesses to a large number of small, noncontiguous pieces of data. If an application's I/O needs are met by m...
We compare two algorithms for sorting out-of-core data on a distributed-memory cluster. One algorithm, Csort, is a 3-pass oblivious algorithm. The other, Dsort, makes three passes...
We hypothesize that certain program complexities and difficulties to realize reuse potentials have their roots in weak mechanisms for generic design of today’s programming techn...
This paper proposes three novel training methods, two of them based on the back-propagation approach and a third one based on information theory for Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) bin...
Geographic information has spawned many novel Web applications where global positioning system (GPS) plays important roles in bridging the applications and end users. Learning kno...
