Abstract. In the field of HPC, the current hardware trend is to design multiprocessor architectures that feature heterogeneous technologies such as specialized coprocessors (e.g., ...
Traditionally, a fundamental assumption in evaluating the performance of algorithms for sorting and selection has been that comparing any two elements costs one unit (of time, work...
The rapid increase in the data volumes for the past few decades has intensified the need for high processing power for database and data mining applications. Researchers have acti...

We present three new reader-writer lock algorithms that scale under high read-only contention. Many previous reader-writer locks suffer significant degradation when many readers a...
Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes on par with convolutional turbo codes (CTC) are two of the most powerful error correction codes known to perform very close to the Shannon li...
