We identify classes of functions for which a No Free Lunch result does and does not hold, with particular emphasis on the relationship between No Free Lunch and problem description...
Most cluster systems used in high performance computing do not allow process relocation at run-time. Finding an allocation that results in minimal completion time is NP-hard and (n...
—Switch-trees are peer-to-peer algorithms for building and improving end-host multicast trees. Nodes switch parents to reduce tree cost or lower source-member latency. A node swi...
We describe the communication infrastructure (CI) for our fault-tolerant cluster middleware, which is optimized for two classes of communication: for the applications and for the ...

A new method, namely the Parallel Two-Level Hybrid (PTH) method, is developed to solve tridiagonal systems on parallel computers. PTH is designed based on Parallel Diagonal Domina...
