Volunteer Computing (VC) projects harness the power of computers owned by volunteers across the Internet to perform hundreds of thousands of independent jobs. In VC projects, the ...
Recent years have seen rapid growth of online services that rely on large-scale server clusters to handle high volume of requests. Such clusters must adaptively control the CPU ut...
As the technology for high-speed networks has evolved over the last decade, the interconnection of commodity computers (e.g., PCs and workstations) at gigabit rates has become a re...

The aIOLi project aims at optimizing the I/O accesses within the cluster by providing a simple POSIX API, thus avoiding the constraints to use a dedicated parallel I/O library. Th...
Modern embedded systems often require high degrees of instruction-level parallelism (ILP) within strict constraints on power consumption and chip cost. Unfortunately, a high-perfo...
