Abstract. Empirical optimizers like ATLAS have been very effective in optimizing computational kernels in libraries. The best choice of parameters such as tile size and degree of l...
The most intuitive memory model for shared-memory multithreaded programming is sequential consistency (SC), but it disallows the use of many compiler and hardware optimizations th...

Performance evaluation of applications running on a Grid is a challenging task. Grid's resources are heterogeneous in nature, often shared, and dynamic, all of which have imp...
Distributed Genetic Algorithm (DGA) is one of the most promising choices among the optimization methods. In this paper we describe DGAFrame, a flexible framework for evolutionary...
