The growing computational and storage needs of several scientific applications mandate the deployment of extreme-scale parallel machines, such as IBM’s Blue Gene/L which can acc...
With advances in storage technology, the ability to provide client end storage for continuous media applications has become a possibility. Transmission of data in cluster based mu...
Sampling is a widely used technique to increase efficiency in database and data mining applications operating on large dataset. In this paper we present a scalable sampling imple...
As cluster systems become increasingly popular, more and more parallel applications require need not only computing power but also significant I/O performance. However, the I/O s...
Parallel and concurrent garbage collectors are increasingly employed by managed runtime environments (MREs) to maintain scalability, as multi-core architectures and multi-threaded...
