Improvements in main memory speeds have not kept pace with increasing processor clock frequency and improved exploitation of instruction-level parallelism. Consequently, the gap b...
Most space-sharing parallel computers presently operated by high-performance computing centers use batch-queuing systems to manage processor allocation. Because these machines are...
Web spider is a widely used approach to obtain information for search engines. As the size of the Web grows, it becomes a natural choice to parallelize the spider’s crawling proc...
Application profiling ? the process of monitoring an application to determine the frequency of execution within specific regions ? is an essential step within the design process f...
Optical networking may dramatically change high performance distributed computing. One reason is that optical networks can support provisioning dynamically configurable lightpath...
