This paper empirically investigates parallel competent genetic algorithms (cGAs) [4]. cGAs, such as BOA [21], LINCGA [15], D5 -GA [28], can solve GA-difficult problems by automati...
—This paper proposes a parallelization scheme for parameter sweep (PS) applications using the compute unified device architecture (CUDA). Our scheme focuses on PS applications w...
Simulated annealing based standard cell placement for VLSI designs has long been acknowledged as a compute-intensive process, and as a result several research efforts have been un...
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
Typical scientific data is represented on a grid with appropriate interpolation or approximation schemes, defined on a continuous domain. The visualization of such data in parallel...
