Bioinformaticists use the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) to characterize an unknown sequence by comparing it against a database of known sequences, thus detecting evolu...
Abstract. Our goal is to extract consistent bits from the same fingerprint in a noisy environment. Such bits can then be used as a secret key in several cryptographic applications...
The aIOLi project aims at optimizing the I/O accesses within the cluster by providing a simple POSIX API, thus avoiding the constraints to use a dedicated parallel I/O library. Th...
We study the problem of maintaining sketches of recent elements of a data stream. Motivated by applications involving network data, we consider streams that are asynchronous, in w...
Data intensive applications on clusters often require requests quickly be sent to the node managing the desired data. In many applications, one must look through a sorted tree str...
