It has been observed that even highly optimized software programs perform "redundant" computations during their execution, due to the nature (statistics) of the values a...
In this paper we propose a systematic approach to performance analysis of workflow applications on the Grid. We introduce an ideal model for the workflow execution time and explain...

We propose EndoScope, a software monitoring framework that allows users to pose declarative queries that monitor the state and performance of running programs. Unlike most existin...
Software DSM systems su er from the high communication and coherence-induced overheads that limit performance. This paper introduces our e orts in reducing system overheads of a h...
Modern microprocessors offer more instruction-level parallelism than most programs and compilers can currently exploit. The resulting disparity between a machine's peak and a...
