Large parallel machines with hundreds of thousands of processors are becoming more
prevalent. Ensuring good load balance is critical for scaling certain classes of parallel …

Load balancing is the process of redistributing the work load among nodes of the distributed
system to improve both resource utilization and job response time while also avoiding a …

Femtosecond laser pulses appear as an emerging and promising tool for processing wide
bandgap dielectric materials for a variety of applications. This article aims to provide an …

Several characteristics distinguish today's complex software systems from “traditional” ones.
Examples in different areas show that these characteristics, already the focus of agent …

For many applications, computation load varies over time. Such applications require
dynamic load balancing to improve performance. Centralized load balancing schemes …

Large parallel machines with hundreds of thousands of processors are being built. Recent
studies have shown that ensuring good load balance is critical for scaling certain classes of …

With commercial supercomputers and homogeneous clusters of PCs, static load balancing
is accomplished by assigning equal tasks to each processor. With heterogeneous clusters …

In this paper, we identify and analyse a set of characteristics that increasingly distinguish
today's complex software systems from ''traditional” ones. Several examples in different …

We survey recent results on wireless networks that are based on analogies with various
branches of Physics. We address, among others, the problems of optimally arranging the …

Among the many reasons for load imbalance in weather forecasting models, the dynamic
imbalance caused by localized variations on the state of the atmosphere is the hardest one …
