Abstract - We have experienced in our distributed applications that the network is the main limiting factor for performances on clusters. Indeed clusters are cheap and it is easier...
Evaluating the performance of a cooperative relaying protocol requires an implementation for simulators and/or software-defined radios (SDRs) with an appropriate model for error d...
Commercial servers, such as database or application servers, often attempt to improve performance via multithreading. Improper multi-threading architectures can incur contention, ...
The performance of machine translation systems varies greatly depending on the source and target languages involved. Determining the contribution of different characteristics of l...
