This paper proposes a comprehensive modeling architecture for workloads on parallel computers using Markov chains in combination with state dependent empirical distribution functi...
Energy consumption by computer systems has emerged as an important concern. However, the energy consumed in executing an algorithm cannot be inferred from its performance alone: i...
Abstract. Agent-based simulation of large multicellular biological systems has become a viable option owing to affordable parallel computers, such as Beowulf-style clusters. We de...
