Programs that take highly-structured files as inputs normally process inputs in stages: syntax
parsing, semantic checking, and application execution. Deep bugs are often hidden in the …

Petascale machines with close to a million processors will soon be available. Although MPI
is the dominant programming model today, some researchers and users wonder (and …

Petascale parallel computers with more than a million processing cores are expected to be
available in a couple of years. Although MPI is the dominant programming interface today for …

With petascale systems already available, researchers are devoting their attention to the
issues needed to reach the next major level in performance, namely, exascale. Explicit …

This paper introduces two novel algorithms for thread migrations, named CIMAR (Core-
aware Interchange and Migration Algorithm with performance Record–IMAR–) and NIMAR …

The current trend in medical research for the discovery of new drugs is the use of Virtual
Screening (VS) methods. In these methods, the calculation of the non-bonded interactions …

One of the major challenges in parallelization is the difficulty of improving application
scalability with conventional techniques. HPX provides efficient scalable parallelism by …

Energy harvesting has been studied as a candidate for powering next generation wireless
sensor networks. The technologies that can harvest electric power from ambient energy …

MUMPS is a parallel sparse direct solver, using message passing (MPI) for parallelism. In
this report we experiment how thread parallelism can help taking advantage of recent …

With the increasing number of Quad-Core-based clusters and the introduction of compute
nodes designed with large memory capacity shared by multiple cores, new problems related …
