Replication in grid file systems can significantly improves I/O performance of data-intensive applications. However, most of existing replication techniques apply to individual ...
Hmmpfam is a widely used computation-intensive bioinformatics software for sequence classification. The contribution of this paper is the first largely scalable and robust clust...
Memory may be the only system component that is more commoditized than a microprocessor. To simultaneously exploit this and address the impending memory wall, processing in memory...

Clusters provide an outstanding cost/performance ratio, but their efficient orchestration, i.e. their cooperative management, maintenance, and use, still poses difficulties. Mor...
In this paper we analyze the I/O access patterns of a widely-used biological sequence search tool and implement two variations that employ parallel-I/O for data access based on PV...
