— Various mechanisms for fault-tolerance (FT) are used today in order to reduce the impact of failures on application execution. In the case of system failure, standard FT mechan...
In this paper we propose a novel computational technique to solve the Eikonal equation. The proposed method manages the list of active nodes and iteratively updates the solutions ...
Efficient data storage, a major concern in the modern computer industry, is mostly provided today by the the traditional magnetic disk. Unfortunately the cost of a disk transfer m...
The MapReduce programming model simplifies large-scale data processing on commodity clusters by having users specify a map function that processes input key/value pairs to generate...
—Atomic operations are important building blocks in supporting general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPUs). For instance, they can be used to coordinate executi...
