This is a project for developing a distributed job execution environment for highly iterative jobs. An iterative job is one where the same binary code is run hundreds of times wit...
Superscalar microprocessor efficiency is generally not as high as anticipated. In fact, sustained utilization below thirty percent of peak is not uncommon, even for fully optimized...
This work presents an application case study. Geant4 is a 750,000 line toolkit first designed in the mid-1990s and originally intended only for sequential computation. Intel's...
We are currently faced with the situation where applications have increasing computational demands and there is a wide selection of parallel processor systems. In this paper we fo...
