Abstract Advances in high performance computing, communications, and user interfaces enable developers to construct increasingly interactive high performance applications. The Falc...
With the advent of multi-core processors, desktop application developers must finally face parallel computing and its challenges. A large portion of the computational load in a p...
A comparative study of parallel metaheuristics executed in grid environments is proposed, having as case study a genetic algorithm, a simulated annealing algorithm and a random se...
Abstract—Message progression schemes that enable communication and computation to be overlapped have the potential to improve the performance of parallel applications. With curre...
Background: Genomic position (GP) files currently used in next-generation sequencing (NGS) studies are always difficult to manipulate due to their huge size and the lack of approp...
