Commercial Scale-Out is a new research project at IBM Research. Its main goal is to investigate and develop technologies for the use of large scale parallelism in commercial appli...
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
We consider a system with a dispatcher and several identical servers in parallel. Task processing times are known upon arrival. We first study the impact of the local scheduling ...
The MiPPS library supports a hybrid model of parallel programming. The library is targeted at commodity multiprocessors, with support for clusters. The implementation of the concu...
Software-based thread-level parallelization has been widely studied for exploiting data parallelism in purely computational loops to improve program performance on multiprocessors...
