In 2002, Japan announced the Earth Simulator—a supercomputer based on low-volume vector processors and a custom network—and reported that computational scientists had used it ...
We propose, implement and evaluate three admission models for computational Grids. The models take the expected demand into account and offer a specific performance guarantee. Th...
CardioWave is a modular system for simulating wavefront conduction in the heart. These simulations may be used to investigate the factors that generate and sustain life-threatenin...
