In this paper we propose a new class of scheduling policies, dubbed Concurrent Gang, that combines the advantages of gang scheduling for communication and synchronization intensiv...
In the numerical solution of large-scale eigenvalue problems, Davidson-type methods are an increasingly popular alternative to Krylov eigensolvers. The main motivation is to avoid ...
We design an incentive-compatible mechanism for scheduling n non-malleable parallel jobs on a parallel system comprising m identical processors. Each job is owned by a selfish us...
Complex and data-intensive database queries mandate parallel processing strategies to achieve sufficiently short response times. In praxis, parallel database processing is mostly b...
Large scale bioinformatics experiments are usually composed by a set of data flows generated by a chain of activities (programs or services) that may be modeled as scientific work...
