— 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...
Abstract. Traditional parallel programming methodologies for improving performance assume cache-based parallel systems. However, new architectures, like the IBM Cyclops-64 (C64), b...
