Using off-the-shelf commodity workstations to build a cluster for parallel computing has become a common practice. In studying or designing a cluster of workstations one should ha...
—Coordinated Checkpoint/Restart (C/R) is a widely deployed strategy to achieve fault-tolerance. However, C/R by itself is not capable enough to meet the demands of upcoming exasc...
The H.264 video codec provides exceptional video compression while imposing dramatic increases in computational complexity over previous standards. While exploiting parallelism in...
