Predicting how well applications may run on modern systems is becoming increasingly challenging. It is no longer sufficient to look at number of floating point operations and commu...
Collaborative annotation tools are in widespread use. The metadata from these systems can be mined to induce semantic relationships among Web objects (sites, pages, tags, concepts...
The growing importance of operations such as identification, location sensing and object tracking has led to increasing interests in contactless Radio Frequency Identification (RFI...
High-speed packet content inspection and filtering devices rely on a fast multi-pattern matching algorithm which is used to detect predefined keywords or signatures in the packets....
A recent trend in modern high performance computing (HPC) system architectures employs “lean” compute nodes running a lightweight operating system (OS). Certain parts of the OS...
