With the fast technical improvement, flash memory based Solid State Drives (SSDs) are becoming an important part of the computer storage hierarchy to significantly improve perfo...
In this paper, we present a performance evaluation of a wide-area cluster system based on a rewallenabled Globus metacomputing toolkit. In order to establish communication links ...
BLASTn is a ubiquitous tool used for large scale DNA analysis. Detailed profiling tests reveal that the most computationally intensive sections of the BLASTn algorithm are the sc...
This paper addresses the efficient processing of top-k queries in wide-area distributed data repositories where the index lists for the attribute values (or text terms) of a query...
