This paper presents a case study to effectively run a parallel branch and bound application on the Grid. The application discussed in this paper is a fine-grain application and is...
Application run-time information is a fundamental component in application and job scheduling. However, accurate predictions of run times are difficult to achieve for parallel app...
Using a cluster of commodity Alpha processors we compare two software platforms based on Linux and Windows NT and intended to support intensive scientic computations. Networking a...
Performance and power are critical design constraints in today’s high-end computing systems. Reducing power consumption without impacting system performance is a challenge for t...
