Future high-performance billion-transistor processors are likely to employ partitioned architectures to achieve high clock speeds, high parallelism, low design complexity, and low...
An architecture for a reconfigurable superscalar processor is described in which some of its execution units are implemented in reconfigurable hardware. The overall configuration ...
Grid computing has been presented as a way to share geographically and organizationally distributed resources and to perform successfully distributed computation. For achieve this ...
We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
The increasing numbers of cores, shared caches and memory nodes within machines introduces a complex hardware topology. High-performance computing applications now have to carefull...
