Abstract. Dependable performance measurement is a common requirement for all on-line services. The ongoing tendency to outsource not only infrastructure, but also software parts to...
Grid users may experience inconsistent performance due to specific characteristics of grids, such as fluctuating workloads, high failure rates, and high resource heterogeneity. Alt...
In order to produce MPI applications that perform well on today’s parallel architectures, programmers need effective tools for collecting and analyzing performance data. Because ...
