This paper presents the integration of application specific interfaces in the UNICORE Grid infrastructure. UNICORE provides a seamless and secure mechanism to access distributed s...
An accurate, tractable, analytic cache model for time-shared systems is presented, which estimates the overall cache missrate of a multiprocessing system with any cache size and t...
The arrival process of jobs submitted to a parallel system is bursty, leading to fluctuations in the load at many time scales. In particular, rare events of extreme load may occu...
Networks of Workstations (NOW) have become important and cost-effective parallel platforms for scientific computations. In practice, a NOW system is heterogeneous and non-dedicat...
Value prediction is a technique that breaks true data dependences by predicting the outcome of an instruction, and executes speculatively its data-dependent instructions based on ...
