- A Repartitioning Hypergraph Model for Dynamic Load Balancing
- In parallel adaptive applications, the computational structure of the applications changes over time, leading to load imbalances even though the initial load distributions were balanced. To restore balance and to keep communication volume low in further iterations of the applications, dynamic load balancing repartitioning of the changed computational structure is...

- Deploying Four-Connectivity and Full-Coverage Wireless Sensor Networks
- Deployment is an important issue in Wireless Sensor Networks WSNs. There are two categories of deployment methods. One is random deployments; the other, planned deployments. With planned deployments, sensors are placed at planned, pre-determined locations. Aside from the theoretical interest, finding the optimal development pattern has its practical significance. First,...

- High Performance MPI-2 One-Sided Communication Over InfiniBand
- Many existing MPI-2 one-sided communication implementations are built on top of MPI send/receive operations. Although this approach can achieve good portability, it suffers from high communication overhead and dependency on remote process for communication progress. To address these problems, the paper proposes a high performance MPI-2 one-sided communication design over...

- Managing research instruments on the Web
- Telescopes, supercomputers or microscopes can cost millions of dollars. The research institutions which bought them often try to share the costs with other laboratories. And they're also tempted to use Internet to allow remote control of their expensive systems. But Internet traffic is not reliable enough to control a multi-million-dollar...
