This paper presents a comprehensive characterization of a multi-cluster supercomputer1 workload using twelvemonth scientific research traces. Metrics that we characterize include...
From personal software to advanced systems, caching mechanisms have steadfastly been a ubiquitous means for reducing workloads. It is no surprise, then, that under the grid and clu...
This paper deals with large, distributed real-time systems that have execution times and resource utilizations which cannot be characterized a priori. (The motivation for our work ...
