Cooperative checkpointing, in which the system dynamically skips checkpoints requested by applications at runtime, can exploit system-level information to improve performance and ...
—A numerical model for the simulation of dynamic compression of a nonlinear multilayer structure subjected to transient compressive excitation is described and tested. It is show...
The goal of this research is to develop performance profiles of parallel and distributed applications in order to predict their execution time under different network conditions....
We introduce a new performance metric, called Load Balancing Factor (LBF), to assist programmers with evaluating different tuning alternatives. The LBF metric differs from traditi...
For sometime now, Unified Modelling Language (UML) has been accepted as a standard for designing new systems. Its array of notations helps system designers to capture their ideas ...
