Compared with lock-based synchronization techniques, Software Transactional Memory (STM) can significantly improve the programmability of multithreaded applications. Existing res...
Experience has shown that development using shared-memory concurrency, the prevalent parallel programming paradigm today, is hard and synchronization primitives nonintuitive becaus...
OGSA-DQP is a Distributed Query Processing system for the Grid. It uses the OGSA-DAI framework for querying individual databases and adds on top of it an infrastructure to perform ...
Large-scale cluster-based Internet services often host partitioned datasets to provide incremental scalability. The aggregation of results produced from multiple partitions is a f...
This paper presents a performance study of a nonrigid registration algorithm for investigating lung disease on clusters. Our algorithm combines two conventional acceleration techn...
