With the vast amount of potential relevant documents on the Web, a key question for a retrieval system is how to achieve a high accuracy retrieval under current Web setting. The w...
Efficient memory allocation and data transfer for cluster-based data-intensive applications is a difficult task. Both changes in cluster interconnects and application workloads ...
In this paper we propose a new parallelization scheme for Simulated Annealing — Hierarchical Parallel SA (HPSA). This new scheme features coarse-granularity in parallelization, d...
