This paper explores the feasibility of a cost-efficient storage architecture that offers the reliability and access performance characteristics of a high-end system. This architec...
On cc-NUMA multi-processors, the non-uniformity of main memory latencies motivates the need for co-location of threads and data. We call this special form of data locality, geogra...
For a grid middleware to perform resource allocation, prediction models are needed, which can determine how long an application will take for completion on a particular platform o...
Processor and memory technology trends portend a continual increase in the relative cost of accessing main memory. Machine designers have tried to mitigate the effect of this tren...
— Existing workflow systems attempt to achieve high performance by intelligently scheduling tasks on resources, sometimes even attempting to move the largest data files on the hi...
