Web-GIS tool for the management of rural land markets. Application to the Land Bank of Galicia (NWSpain)
(Springer, 2013)
[Abstract] Land abandonment and stagnation of rural markets in the last few years have become one of the main concerns of rural administrations. The use of Web and GIS (Geographic Information System) technologies can help ...
General‐purpose computation on GPUs for high performance cloud computing
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2013-08)
[Abstract] Cloud computing is offering new approaches for High Performance Computing (HPC) as it provides dynamically scalable resources as a service over the Internet. In addition, General‐Purpose computation on Graphical ...
Large-scale genome-wide association studies on a GPU cluster using a CUDA-accelerated PGAS programming model
(Sage Publications Ltd., 2015)
[Abstract] Detecting epistasis, such as 2-SNP interactions, in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is an important but time consuming operation. Consequently, GPUs have already been used to accelerate these studies, ...
Solving Large Problem Sizes of Index-Digit Algorithms on GPU: FFT and Tridiagonal System Solvers
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018)
[Abstract] Current Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are capable of obtaining high computational performance in scientific applications. Nevertheless, programmers have to use suitable parallel algorithms for these architectures ...
Improving Scalability of Application-Level Checkpoint-Recovery by Reducing Checkpoint Sizes
(Springer Japan KK, 2013)
[Abstract] The execution times of large-scale parallel applications on nowadays multi/many-core systems are usually longer than the mean time between failures. Therefore, parallel applications must tolerate hardware failures ...
Rendering of Bézier Surfaces on Handheld Devices
(Vaclav Skala - Union Agency, 2013)
[Abstract] Bézier surfaces have been widely employed in the designing of complex scenes with high-quality results. Nevertheless, parametric surfaces cannot be directly rendered in the current GPUs of modern handheld devices. ...
Parallelizing Epistasis Detection in GWAS on FPGA and GPU-Accelerated Computing Systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015)
[Abstract] High-throughput genotyping technologies (such as SNP-arrays) allow the rapid collection of up to a few million genetic markers of an individual. Detecting epistasis (based on 2-SNP interactions) in Genome-Wide ...
ParBiBit: Parallel tool for binary biclustering on modern distributed-memory systems
(PLoS, 2018)
[Abstract]: Biclustering techniques are gaining attention in the analysis of large-scale datasets as they identify two-dimensional submatrices where both rows and columns are correlated. In this work we present ParBiBit, ...
bioScience: A new python science library for high-performance computing bioinformatics analytics
(Elsevier Ltd, 2024)
[Abstract]: BioScience is an advanced Python library designed to satisfy the growing data analysis needs in the field of bioinformatics by leveraging High-Performance Computing (HPC). This library encompasses a vast multitude ...
Does the choice of nucleotide substitution models matter topologically?
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2016-03-24)
[Abstract] Background: In the context of a master level programming practical at the computer science department of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, we developed and make available an open-source code for testing all ...
