Abstract. Monte Carlo (MC) methods have proved to be flexible, robust and very useful techniques in computational finance. Several studies have investigated ways to achieve greater...
—A massive volume of biological sequence data is available in over 36 different databases worldwide, including the sequence data generated by the Human Genome project. These data...
A comparative study of parallel metaheuristics executed in grid environments is proposed, having as case study a genetic algorithm, a simulated annealing algorithm and a random se...
Abstract. We show how computations such as those involved in American or European-style option price valuations with the explicit finite difference method can be performed in par...
— In this paper we give a theoretical model for determining the synchronization frequency that minimizes the parallel execution time of loops with uniform dependencies dynamicall...
