The emergence of grid and a new class of data-driven applications is making a new form of parallelism desirable, which we refer to as coarse-grained pipelined parallelism. This pa...
With applications becoming larger and the increasing load on high performance systems, it is important to tackle the I/O bottleneck problem from several angles. It is not only ess...
