Power consumption is a troublesome design constraint for emergent systems such as IBM’s BlueGene /L. If current trends continue, future petaflop systems will require 100 megawat...
High-end parallel systems present a tremendous research challenge on how to best allocate their resources to match dynamic workload characteristics and user habits that are often ...
OpenMP has emerged as a widely accepted standard for writing shared memory programs. Hardware-specific extensions such as data placement are usually needed to improve the scalabi...
Inference of phylogenetic trees comprising hundreds or even thousands of organisms based on the maximum likelihood method is computationally extremely expensive. In previous work,...
In this paper we propose and evaluate the Adaptive++ technique, a novel runtime-only data prefetching strategy for software-based distributed shared-memory systems (software DSMs)...
