A recent trend in modern high performance computing (HPC) system architectures employs “lean” compute nodes running a lightweight operating system (OS). Certain parts of the OS...
The problem of computing the minimum enclosing sphere (MES) of a point set is a classical problem in Computational Geometry. As an LP-type problem, its expected running time on th...
In the past, efficient parallel algorithms have always been developed specifically for the successive generations of parallel systems (vector machines, shared-memory machines, d...
High-performance computing clusters running longlived tasks currently cannot have kernel software updates applied to them without causing system downtime. These clusters miss oppo...
that graph transformations provide the right level of abstraction, and useful technical tools for studying gene assembly. On the other hand, the gene assembly process inspires a ne...
