This paper presents a general-purpose distributed lookup service, denoted Passive Distributed Indexing (PDI). PDI stores entries in form of (key, value) pairs in index caches loca...
This study examined the interplay among processor speed, cluster interconnect and file I/O, using parallel applications to quantify interactions. We focused on a common case wher...
Background: Identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) under different experimental conditions is an important task in many microarray studies. However, choosing whic...
—We introduce Zen, a new resource allocation framework that assigns application components to node clusters to achieve high availability for partial-fault tolerant (PFT) applicat...
Server applications with adaptive behaviors can adapt their functionality in response to environmental changes, and significantly reduce the on-going costs of system deployment an...
