Background: As the number of fully sequenced genome increases, the need is greater for bioinformatics to predict or annotate genes of a newly sequenced genome. Ever since Eisenber...
Out-of-core applications consume physical resources at a rapid rate, causing interactive applications sharing the same machine to exhibit poor response times. This behavior is the...
Power consumption is a troublesome design constraint for emergent systems such as IBM’s BlueGene /L. If current trends continue, future petaflop systems will require 100 megawat...
One of the mostsoughtaftersoftware innovation of thisdecade is the construction of systems using off-the-shelf workstations that actually deliver, and even surpass, the power and ...
With the falling price of the memory, an increasing number of multimedia servers and proxies are now equipped with a large memory space. Caching media objects in the memory of a p...
