Hierarchical Parallel Simulated Annealing and Its Applications
In this paper we propose a new parallelization scheme for Simulated Annealing — Hierarchical Parallel SA (HPSA). This new scheme features coarse-granularity in parallelization, d...

XYZ: A Scalable, Partially Centralized Lookup Service for Large-Scale Peer-to-Peer Systems
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are characterized by direct access between peer computers, rather than through a centralized server. File sharing is the dominant P2P application on the...

Fault-Tolerant Parallel Applications with Dynamic Parallel Schedules
Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore...
