There has been a lot of recent interest in mining patterns from graphs. Often, the exact structure of the patterns of interest is not known. This happens, for example, when molecu...
There is a continuous research effort devoted to overcome the memory wall problem. Prefetching is one of the most frequently used techniques. A prefetch mechanism anticipates the ...
Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
Grid environments enable users to share non-dedicated resources that lack performance guarantees. This paper describes the design of application-centric middleware components to a...
In this paper, we take the idea of application-level processing on disks to one level further, and focus on an architecture, called Cluster of Active Disks (CAD), where the storag...
