—Recent progress in Wireless Sensor Networks technology has enabled many complicated real-world applications. Some of the applications demand a non-trivial amount of computation;...
The MPI standard provides tool builders with an efficient profiling interface, PMPI. Although many tools have successfully used this interface, it has three major drawbacks: a n...
Cache groups are a powerful concept for database caching, which is used to relieve the backend database load and to keep referenced data close to the application programs at the &q...
