One of the advantages in virtualized computing clusters compared to traditional shared HPC environments is their ability to accommodate user-specific system customization. Howeve...
In this paper, we present a system capable of improving the I/O performance in an automatic way. This system is able to learn the behavior of the applications running on top and ...
Conventional programming models were designed to be used by expert programmers for programming for largescale multiprocessors, distributed computational clusters, or specialized p...
A link is an unreliable FIFO channel. As we mentioned earlier, it is an abstraction of a point-topoint wire or of a simple broadcast LAN. It is unreliable because noise or other ph...
We consider the problem of indexing high-dimensional data for answering (approximate) similarity-search queries. Similarity indexes prove to be important in a wide variety of sett...
