We study the issue of performance prediction on the SGIPower Challenge, a typical SMP. On such a platform, the cost of memory accesses depends on their locality and on contention ...

As communication and I/O traffic increase on the interconnection network of high-performance systems, network contention becomes a critical problem drastically reducing performan...
Selective dynamic compilation systems, typically driven by annotations that identify run-time constants, can achieve significant program speedups. However, manually inserting ann...
This work has as main objective to present an off-line signature verification system. It is basically divided into three parts. The first one demonstrates a pre-processing process,...

The standard CORBA operation invocation model supports synchronous, one-way, and deferred synchronous interactions between clients and servers. However, this model is too restrict...
