The high demand for large scale storage capacity calls for the availability of massive storage solutions with high performance interconnects. Although cluster file systems are rap...
We simulate different architectures of a distributed Information Retrieval system on a very large Web collection, in order to work out the optimal setting for a particular set of r...
The traditional approach for characterizing complex systems is to run standard workloads and measure the resulting performance as seen by the end user. However, unique opportuniti...

Abstract—Multi-core systems are now extremely common in modern clusters. In the past commodity systems may have had up to two or four CPUs per compute node. In modern clusters, t...
Network of workstation (NOW) is a cost-effective alternative to massively parallel supercomputers. As commercially available off-theshelf processors become cheaper and faster, it...
