Dynamically allocating computing nodes to parallel applications is a promising technique for improving the utilization of cluster resources. We introduce the concept of dynamic ef...
In SMP clusters it is not always convenient to switch from pure message-passing code to hybrid software designs that exploit shared memory. This paper tackles the problem of restru...
Until recently, most 3D graphics applications had been regarded as too computationally intensive for devices other than desktop computers and gaming consoles. This notion is rapid...
