The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...
We present PIO-HMMER, an enhanced version of MPI-HMMER. PIO-HMMER improves on MPIHMMER’s scalability through the use of parallel I/O and a parallel file system. In addition, we...
Tabling or memoing is a technique where one stores intermediate answers to a problem so that they can be reused in further calls. Tabling is of interest to logic programming becau...
A novel hybrid genetic algorithm (GA) for jointly optimizing source and channel codes is presented in this paper. The algorithm first uses GA for the coarse search of source and ch...
We propose a peer-to-peer Web document sharing technique, called “Browsers-Aware Proxy Server”. In this design, a proxy server connecting to a group of networked clients maint...
