We present a transparent, system-level checkpointing solution for master-worker parallelism that automatically adapts, upon restart, to the number of processor nodes available. Th...
Image analysis is an important component of neuroscience research. The ICT infrastructure and technical knowledge needed to perform (large scale) neuroimaging studies, however, is...
Abstract— Emergent wide-area distributed systems like computational grids present opportunities for large scientific applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms hav...
