Large-scale cluster-based Internet services often host partitioned datasets to provide incremental scalability. The aggregation of results produced from multiple partitions is a f...
To take full advantage of the parallelism offered by a multicore machine, one must write parallel code. Writing parallel code is difficult. Even when one writes correct code, the...
