Although platform-independent runtime systems for parallel programming languages are desirable, the need for low-level optimizations usually precludes their existence. This is bec...
— The Smith-Waterman algorithm is a dynamic programming method for determining optimal local alignments between nucleotide or protein sequences. However, it suffers from quadrati...
In this paper, we provide an overview of Logistical Runtime System (LoRS). LoRS is an integrated ensemble of tools and services that aggregate primitive (best effort, faulty) stor...

The paper presents approaches to the validation of optimizing compilers. The emphasis is on aggressive and architecture-targeted optimizations which try to obtain the highest perf...

Traditional optimizers fail to pick good execution plans, when faced with increasingly complex queries and large data sets. This failure is even more acute in the context of XQuery...
