Most parallel machines, such as clusters, are spaceshared in order to isolate batch parallel applications from each other and optimize their performance. However, this leads to lo...
The development of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) had tremendous improvements in the last few years. They were extended from simple logic circuits to complex Systems-on-Ch...
Due to the increasing complexity, the behavior of large-scale distributed systems becomes difficult to predict. The ability of on-line identification and autotuning of adaptive co...
High-Level music descriptors are key ingredients for music information retrieval systems. Although there is a long tradition in extracting information from acoustic signals, the f...
Data futures in a metacomputing system refer to data products that have not yet been created but which can be uniquely named and manipulated. We employ data flow mechanisms expres...
