For a grid middleware to perform resource allocation, prediction models are needed, which can determine how long an application will take for completion on a particular platform o...
FPGA chips in reconfigurable computer systems are used as malleable coprocessors where components of a hardware library of functions can be configured as needed. As the number of ...
Aggressive hardware-based and software-based prefetch algorithms for hiding memory access latencies were proposed to bridge the gap of the expanding speed disparity between proces...
In this paper we investigate protocols for scheduling applications that consist of large numbers of identical, independent tasks on large-scale computing platforms. By imposing a ...
