Large-scale systems like BlueGene/L are susceptible to a number of software and hardware failures that can affect system performance. Periodic application checkpointing is a commo...
Scientists have long relied on abstract models to study phenomena that are too complex for direct observation and experimentation. As new scientific modeling methodologies emerge...
Applications in scientific computing operate with high-volume numerical data and the occupied space should be reduced. Traditional compression algorithms cannot provide sufficie...
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are characterized by direct access between peer computers, rather than through a centralized server. File sharing is the dominant P2P application on the...
Datapath width optimization is very effective for reducing the area of a custom-made embedded system. The trivial way of optimization is to iteratively customize, evaluate, and r...
