Disk and network latency must be taken into account when applying parallel computing to large multidimensional datasets because they can hinder performance by reducing the rate at...
Advances in computing and communication technologies have resulted in a wide variety of networked mobile devices that access data over the Internet. In this paper, we argue that s...
Shared memory multiprocessors play an increasingly important role in enterprise and scientific computing facilities. Remote misses limit the performance of shared memory applicat...
Abstract In an effort to achieve lower bandwidth requirements, video compression algorithms have become increasingly complex. Consequently, the deployment of these algorithms on Fi...
