Layering of protocols o ers several well-known advantages, but typically leads to performance ine ciencies. We present a model for layering, and point out where the performance pr...
Process skew is an important factor in the performance of parallel applications, especially in large-scale clusters. Reduction is a common collective operation which, by its natur...

Programmers of message-passing codes for clusters of workstations face a daunting challenge in understanding the performance bottlenecks of their applications. This is largely due...
The development and use of cluster based computing is increasingly becoming an effective approach for solving high performance computing problems. The trend of moving away from sp...
Self-Organized Networks (SONs) are a general description of autonomous networks without infrastructure, of which Ad Hoc, Sensor and Mesh networks are special cases. We had previou...
