Abstract. Exploiting the full computational power of current hierarchical multiprocessor machines requires a very careful distribution of threads and data among the underlying non-...
The current trend of increasingly larger Web-based applications makes scalability the key challenge when developing, deploying, and maintaining data centers. At the same time, the ...
Finding the appropriate location of adaptation points for computation migration/checkpointing is critical since the distance between two consecutive adaptation points determines t...
This paper describes a middleware that enables its target application to dynamically incorporate heterogeneous nodes of a cluster. It distributes the objects of the application ac...
Multi-tier systems that combine SSDs with SAS/FC and/or SATA disks mitigate the capital cost burden of SSDs, while benefiting from their superior I/O performance per unit cost an...
