Large client-server data intensive applications can place high demands on system and network resources. This is especially true when the connection between the client and server s...
Mesh generation and mesh enhancement algorithms often require a mesh size function to specify the desired size of the elements. We present algorithms for automatic generation of a...
The SGI Origin 2000 is designedto support a wide range of applications and has low local and remote memory latencies. However, it often has a high ratio of remote to local misses....
Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
A major hurdle facing data intensive grid applications is the appropriate handling of failures that occur in the grid-environment. Implementing the fault-tolerance transparently a...
