RSS grainCluster Load Balancing for Fine-Grain Network Services
White Paper This paper studies cluster load balancing policies and system support for fine-grain network services. Load balancing on a cluster of machines has been studied extensively in the literature, mainly focusing on coarse-grain distributed computation. [10 Jul 2008]
Conflict-Aware Load-Balancing Techniques for Database Replication
White Paper Middleware-based database replication protocols are more portable and flexible than kernel-based protocols, but have coarser-grain information about transaction access data, resulting in reduced concurrency and increased aborts. [10 Jul 2008]
Conflict-Aware Load-Balancing Techniques for Database Replication
White Paper Thus, they are more portable and flexible than kernel-based protocols, but have coarser-grain information about transaction access data, resulting in reduced concurrency and increased aborts. Middleware-based database replication protocols require... [10 Jul 2008]
CIO - IT Manager - Developer Meeting Diverse Enterprise Integration Objectives
White Paper Enterprise executives responsible for business processes seldom have the time or the inclination to compose their processes at fine-grain, programmer-level detail. IT developers, on the other hand, need the fine-grain visibility into EAI... [03 Jul 2008]
A Multithreaded Parallel Implementation of a Dynamic Programming Algorithm for Sequence Comparison
White Paper This paper discusses the issues involved in implementing a dynamic programming algorithm for biological sequence comparison on a general-purpose parallel computing platform based on a fine-grain event-driven multithreaded program execution model. [03 Jul 2008]
Component-Based Business Process Composition
White Paper Using the notion of coarse-grain programming techniques to create a palette of reusable components, the creation, prototyping, production, and ongoing management of complex applications can be made as simple as manipulating numerical macros in a... [03 Jul 2008]
Component-Based Business Process Composition Provides Risk Mitigation, Accelerated ROI and Gets Your EAI Project Implemented in Time
White Paper Using the notion of coarse-grain programming techniques to create a palette of reusable components, the creation, prototyping, production, and ongoing management of composite applications can be made as simple as manipulating numerical macros in a... [03 Jul 2008]
SafeWord Plus: PKI
White Paper This e-business security approach calls for a fine-grain, user-based access model for all internal resources. The traditional security approach is to assume all external system users are potential threats/attackers and to use a perimeter firewall... [03 Jul 2008]
Measurement and the Software Development Process
White Paper This shows that process models for measurement integration should be sufficiently fine-grained to show when measurements should be collected, how they should be collected, who should collect then, and how the results will be used (the usual... [03 Jul 2008]
Dear silicon.com... outsource vs insource, Naked CIO on open source, password overload…
Comment Insourcing offers fine grain management control over quality, shared time zones, resistance to infrastructural failure, data protection and the opportunity for face to face meetings if you share the same building. [08 May 2008]
Australian Agribusiness Pushes Data to Remote Employees to Speed Customer Response
White Paper GrainCorp is a leading Australian agribusiness and the largest grain handler on the east coast of Australia, servicing both local and international markets. With industry deregulation and increasing competition, GrainCorp needed to improve its... [30 Apr 2008]
Near Fine Grain Parallel Processing Using a Multiprocessor With MAPLE
White Paper Multigrain parallelizing scheme is one of effective parallelizing schemes which exploits various level parallelism: coarse-grain(macro-dataflow), medium-grain(loop level parallelizing) and near-fine-grain(statements parallelizing) from a... [04 Mar 2008]
Qlisp: Parallel Processing in Lisp
White Paper This paper describes multiprocessing extensions to Common Lisp designed to be suitable for studying styles of parallel programming at the medium-grain level in a shared-memory architecture. One of the major problems in writing programs to take... [04 Mar 2008]
Cache Optimization for Coarse Grain Task Parallel Processing Using Inter-Array Padding
White Paper In multigrain parallelization, coarse grain task parallelism among loops and subroutines and near fine grain parallelism among statements is used in addition to the traditional loop parallelism. The wide use of multiprocessor system has been making... [03 Mar 2008]
High Performance Computing: Compatible Acceleration Using Fine Grain, Parallel Processing
White Paper In many cases, organizations are not realizing expected performance increases when running large, complex applications on High Performance Computing (HPC) computers. A mismatch between existing computer architectures and the applications running on... [03 Mar 2008]
