: Parallel database systems aim at providing high throughput for OLTP transactions as well as short response times for complex and data-intensive queries. Shared nothing systems re...
In recent years, we have seen a dramatic increase in the use of data-centric distributed systems such as global grid infrastructures, sensor networks, network monitoring, and vari...
Abstract. This paper proposes and presents a comparison of scheduling algorithms applied to the context of load balancing the query traffic on distributed inverted files. We put em...
Abstract. In this paper, we present self-avoiding walks as a novel technique to linearize" a triangular mesh. Unlike space- lling curves which are based on a geometric embeddi...
We describe our experience using PARED, an object oriented system for the adaptive solution of PDEs in a distributed computing environment. PARED handles selective mesh refinement...
