In large storage systems, it is crucial to protect data from loss due to failures. Erasure codes
lay the foundation of this protection, enabling systems to reconstruct lost data when …

Modern traffic management should benefit from the diverse sensors, smart phones, and
social networks data that offer the potential of enhanced services. In disaster scenarios, it is …

We present a practical experience in adding a dynamic-load-balancing capability to an
existing large parallel application—multiresolution molecular dynamics (MRMD)—which is …

Little data exists on how message passing programs use parallel computers. The behavior
of these programs can strongly influence design decisions made for future computer …

Recent improvements in LANs make network of workstations a good alternative to traditional
parallel computers in some applications. MPI (Message Passing Interface) standard library …

Many common implementations of Message P assing Interface (MPI) implement collectiv e
operations over poin t-to-poin toperations. This work examines IP multicast as a framework …

One of the most fundamental problems automatic parallelization tools are confronted with is
to find an optimal domain decomposition for a given application. For regular domain …

We present novel hard-and software that e ciently implements communication primitives for
parallel execution on workstation clusters. We provide low communication latencies …
