Disk and network latency must be taken into account when applying parallel computing to large multidimensional datasets because they can hinder performance by reducing the rate at...
We suggest a general paradigm of using large-scale distributed computation to solve difficult problems, but where humans can act as agents and provide candidate solutions. We are e...

The computational requirements for an adaptive solution of unsteady problems change as the simulation progresses. This causes workload imbalance among processors on a parallel mac...
Data warehouses store large volumes of data according to a multidimensional model with dimensions representing different axes of analysis. OLAP systems (OnLine Analytical Processi...
This paper argues for new computational mechanisms to aid specification of requirements for composite systems. It presents mechanisms for storing specification fragments, or viewp...
