- Since Fall 2004, we have been co-teaching a class on Grid computing to several NC institutions using the North Carolina Research and Education Network (NCREN). In this paper, we ...
This paper describes the result of performance evaluation of two kinds of MapReduce applications running in the FutureGrid: a data intensive application and a computation intensive...
Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
Near-ubiquitous smart phones are the most promising heralds of future pervasive computing. However, despite their increasing capabilities in computation, communication, and sensin...
