We present a simple approach for implementing flexible locking strategies in a system of components, which may themselves be composite objects. The approach is flexible in that a ...
This paper presents Clusterfile, a parallel file system that provides parallel file access on a cluster of computers. Existing parallel file systems offer little control over matc...
A variety of real-world applications share the property that data arrives in form of transient streams. Data stream management systems (DSMS) provide convenient solutions to the p...
Large-scale computing environments, such as TeraGrid, Distributed ASCI Supercomputer (DAS), and Grid’5000, have been using resource co-allocation to execute applications on mult...
The MPI standard provides tool builders with an efficient profiling interface, PMPI. Although many tools have successfully used this interface, it has three major drawbacks: a n...
