A Trace-Driven Comparison of Algorithms for Parallel Prefetching and Caching
High-performance I/O systems depend on prefetching and caching in order to deliver good performance to applications. These two techniques have generally been considered in isolati...

Parallel Chains, Delayed Rejection and Reversible Jump MCMC for Object Recognition
We tackle the problem of object recognition using a Bayesian approach. A marked point process [1] is used as a prior model for the (unknown number of) objects. A sample is generat...

A scalable auto-tuning framework for compiler optimization
We describe a scalable and general-purpose framework for auto-tuning compiler-generated code. We combine Active Harmony’s parallel search backend with the CHiLL compiler transfo...

Finite/Discrete Element Analysis of Multi-fracture and Multi-contact Phenomena
A dynamic domain decomposition strategy is proposed for the effective parallel implementation of combined finite/discrete element approaches for problems involving multi-fracture a...

Programming the memory hierarchy revisited: supporting irregular parallelism in sequoia
We describe two novel constructs for programming parallel machines with multi-level memory hierarchies: call-up, which allows a child task to invoke computation on its parent, and...
