Research in context-aware computing has produced a number of application prototypes, frameworks, middlewares and models for describing context. However, development of ubiquitous ...
Multi-core processors have changed the conventional hardware structure and require a rethinking of system scheduling and resource management to utilize them efficiently. However, ...
In-memory data sharing for grids allow location-transparent access to data stored in volatile memory. Existing Grid middlewares typ- ically support only explicit data transfer betw...
Networks of workstations are fast becoming the standard environment for parallel applications. However, the use of “found” resources as a platform for tightly-coupled runtime ...
The growing computational and storage needs of several scientific applications mandate the deployment of extreme-scale parallel machines, such as IBM’s Blue Gene/L which can acc...
