Saturating counters are a newly defined class of generalized parallel counters that provide the exact number of inputs which are equal to 1 only if this number is below a given t...
We live in an era of data explosion that necessitates the discovery of novel out-of-core techniques. The I/O bottleneck has to be dealt with in developing out-of-core methods. The...
Abstract. Performance modeling is important for implementing efficient parallel applications and runtime systems. The LogP model captures the relevant aspects of message passing i...
Previous simulators for shared-memory architectures have imposed a large tradeoff between simulation accuracy and speed. Most such simulators model simple processors that do not e...
Declustered data organizations in disk arrays (RAIDs) achieve less-intrusive reconstruction of data after a disk failure. We present PDDL, a new data layout for declustered disk a...
