—The industry is now in agreement that the future of architecture design lies in multiple cores. As a consequence, all computer systems today, from embedded devices to petascale ...
Clusters of SMPs are becoming increasingly common. However, the shared memory design of SMPs and the consequential contention between system processors for access to main memory c...
—We present Nswap2L, a fast backing storage system for general purpose clusters. Nswap2L implements a single device interface on top of multiple heterogeneous physical storage de...
Mobile devices increasingly offer functionality beyond the one provided by traditional resources – processor, memory and applications. This includes, for example, integrated mul...
Distributed systems based on cluster of workstation are more and more difficult to manage due to the increasing number of processors involved, and the complexity of associated appl...
