Abstract--Many shared-memory parallel systems use lockbased synchronization mechanisms to provide mutual exclusion or reader-writer access to memory locations. Software locks are i...
Background: In recent years, the demand for computational power in computational biology has increased due to rapidly growing data sets from microarray and other high-throughput t...
Recovery activities, like logging, checkpointing and restart, are used to restore a database to a consistent state after a system crash has occurred. Recovery related overhead is ...
