Abstract—Parallel file systems are designed to mask the everincreasing gap between CPU and disk speeds via parallel I/O processing. While they have become an indispensable compo...
We describe a novel load-balancing method for sort-first parallel graphics rendering systems. It gives up geometry data which could be very large and tends to cause unacceptable c...
— Efficient and scalable live-streaming overlay construction has become a hot topic recently. In order to improve the performance metrics, such as startup delay, source-to-end de...
