We present a simple approach for implementing flexible locking strategies in a system of components, which may themselves be composite objects. The approach is flexible in that a ...
We describe a case study that uses grid computing techniques to support the collaborative learning of high school students investigating cosmic rays. Students gather and upload sc...

Parallel machines are typically space shared, or time shared such that only one application executes on a group of nodes at any given time. It is generally assumed that executing ...
Once a new gene has been sequenced, it must be verified whether or not it is similar to previously sequenced genes. In many cases, the organization that sequenced a potentially n...
Genome comparison and analysis can reveal the structures and functions of genome sequences of different species. As more genomes are sequenced, genomic data sources are rapidly in...
