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 ...
Walking Recognition in Mobile Devices
(MDPI AG, 2020-02-21)
[Abstract] Presently, smartphones are used more and more for purposes that have nothing to do with phone calls or simple data transfers. One example is the recognition of human activity, which is relevant information for ...
A simulated annealing algorithm for zoning in planning using parallel computing
(Pergamon Press, 2016)
[Abstract] There is an increasing demand for tools that support land use planning processes, particularly the design of zoning maps, which is one of the most complex tasks in the field. In this task, different land use ...
Efficient high-precision integer multiplication on the GPU
(SAGE Journals, 2022-03)
[Abstract]: The multiplication of large integers, which has many applications in computer science, is an operation that can be expressed as a polynomial multiplication followed by a carry normalization. This work develops ...
Automated and accurate cache behavior analysis for codes with irregular access patterns
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2007-04-03)
[Abstract] The memory hierarchy plays an essential role in the performance of current computers, so good analysis tools that help in predicting and understanding its behavior are required. Analytical modeling is the ideal ...
