This paper presents language features for High Performance Fortran HPF to specify non-local access patterns of distributed arrays, called halos, and to control the communication as...
When data resides on tertiary storage, clustering is the key to achieving high retrieval performance. However, a straightforward approach to clustering massive amounts of data on ...
