After years of providing no-cost printing in its computing sites, the University of Delaware (UD) decided to move to a fee-based printing scheme for its student computing sites. T...
An emerging tapestry of computations will soon integrate systems around the globe. It will evolve without central control. Its complexity will be vast. We need new ideas, tools an...
This paper describes the principles of an original adaptive interconnect for a computational cluster. Torus topology (2d or 3d) is used as a basis but nodes are allowed to effecti...
In cast-shadow analysis one merely draws a line between each occluder and its associated shadow cast onto a different surface, possibly with wedges indicating precision. In some c...
Due to power wall, memory wall, and ILP wall, we are facing the end of ever increasing single-threaded performance. For this reason, multicore and manycore processors are arising ...
