Scientists increasingly rely on the execution of workflows in grids to obtain results from complex mixtures of applications. However, the inherently dynamic nature of grid workflo...
We introduce a refinement strategy to bring the parallel performance analysis closer to the user. The analysis starts with a simple high-level performance model. It is based on fir...

Answering performance to business queries, mainly of aggregated nature, known as On-Line Analytical Processing queries, depends heavily on the proper selection of multidimensional ...
As the speed gap between CPU and memory widens, memory hierarchy has become the primary factor limiting program performance. Until now, the principal focus of hardware and softwar...
