A full exploitation of the computational power available in a multi-core platform requires the software to be specified in terms of parallel execution flows. At the same time, mode...
Requirements to embedded systems increase steadily. In parallel, also the performance of the processors used in these systems is improved leading to multithreaded and/or multicore...
Home health care, i.e. visiting and nursing patients in their homes, is a growing sector in the medical service business. From a staff rostering point of view, the problem is to f...
Abstract— We describe a grid-based approach for enterprisescale data mining that leverages database technology for I/O parallelism, and on-demand compute servers for compute para...
