Scientific workflows are a powerful programming technique for specifying complex computations using a number of otherwise independent components. When used in a Grid environment, ...
With the advent of chip-multiprocessors (CMPs), Thread-Level Speculation (TLS) remains a promising technique for exploiting this highly multithreaded hardware to improve the perfo...
Most image processing algorithms can be parallelized by splitting parallel loops and by using very few communication patterns. Code parallelization using MPI still involves much p...
On-line transaction processing exhibits poor memory behavior in high-end multiprocessor servers because of complex sharing patterns and substantial interaction between the databas...
Enterprise Java Beans (EJB), a specification for a Java component framework recently released by Sun Microsystems, immediately attracted attention of several major software vendor...
