For the last few years, large Web content providers interested in improving their scalability and availability have increasingly turned to three techniques: mirroring, content dis...
In this paper, we present a performance evaluation of a wide-area cluster system based on a rewallenabled Globus metacomputing toolkit. In order to establish communication links ...
Branch prediction accuracy is a very important factor for superscalarprocessor performance. The ability topredict the outcome of a branch allows the processor to effectively use a...
The Virtual Interface (VI) Architecture provides protected userlevel communication with high delivered bandwidth and low permessage latency, particularly for small messages. The V...
This paper describes PRISM, a distributed sharedmemory architecture that relies on a tightly integrated hardware and operating system design for scalable and reliable performance....
