Network resources will always be heterogeneous, and thus have different functionalities and programming models. This adversely affects interoperability. Seamless Mobility is one e...
— The increasing heterogeneity, dynamism, and uncertainty of emerging DCE (Distributed Computing Environment) systems imply that an application must be able to detect and adapt t...
These days an increasing number of applications, especially in science and engineering, are dealing with a massive amount of data; hence they are dataintensive. Bioinformatics, da...
Despite using high-speed network interconnection systems like InfiniBand, the communication overhead for parallel applications is still high. In this paper we show, how such costs...
