BlueGene/L is currently the world’s fastest supercomputer. It consists of a large number of low power dual-processor compute nodes interconnected by high speed torus and collect...
Current proposals for concurrent shared-memory languages, including C++ and C, provide sequential consistency only for programs without data races (the DRF guarantee). While the i...
Modern disk drives read-ahead data and reorder incoming requests in a workload-dependent fashion. This improves their performance, but makes simple analytical models of them inade...

Earthwork projects involve moving specific amounts of earth from a discrete set of source locations to a discrete set of destinations. Constructors use different methods and equip...
Multi-Processor System-On-Chip (MPSoC) can provide the performance levels required by high-end embedded applications. However, they do so at the price of an increasing power densi...
