Virtual machine service threads can perform many tasks in parallel with program execution such as garbage collection, dynamic compilation, and profile collection and analysis. Har...
We describe a technique for achieving fast volume ray casting on parallel machines, using a load balancing scheme and an e cient pipelined approach to compositing. We propose a ne...
Data allocation is a key performance factor for parallel database systems (PDBS). This holds especially for data warehousing environments where huge amounts of data and complex an...
Clustering algorithms such as k-means, the self-organizing map (SOM), or Neural Gas (NG) constitute popular tools for automated information analysis. Since data sets are becoming l...
Abstract. A well studied and difficult class of scheduling problems concerns parallel machines and precedence constraints. In order to model more realistic situations, we consider ...
