In parallel computing environments such as HPC clusters and the Grid, data-intensive applications involve large overhead costs due to a concentration of access to the files on co...
Instruments and sensors are the primary sources of data driving science and the development and refinement of theory. A critical component of eresearch yet to be clarified is the ...

In this paper, we present a new approach to performing important classes of genomic computations (e.g., search for homologous genes) that makes a significant step towards privacy...
This paper presents a mechanism to run parallel applications in heterogeneous, dynamic environments while maintaining thread synchrony. A heterogeneous software DSM is used to pro...
Patching, upgrading, and maintaining operating system software is a growing management complexity problem that can result in unacceptable system downtime. We introduce AutoPod, a ...
