Queueing theory has been recently proposed as a framework to model the heavy tailed statistics of human activity patterns. The main predictions are the existence of a powerlaw distribution for the interevent time of human actions and two decay exponents Ξ± = 1 and Ξ± = 3/2. Current models lack, howeve

This is a study of the effect of data structures and algorithms on parallelism and vectorization for the molecular dynamics package GROMOS. About 80% of the computing time (for the GROMOS benchmark) is spent on the nonbonded interactions, and an important issue is the method that is used for finding
We have developed an efficient method of performing large scale molecular dynamics simulations on a distributed memory parallel computer. A novel strategy has been used to calculate interaction forces across processors which avoids redundant calculation of forces and incurs relatively low communicat
A homeless protocol is one in which all nodes are treated identically when they access common resources. By contrast, home-based protocols assign a home or manager to each resource. Use of the resource by the home incurs less overhead than use by other processors. The key to good performance in such
This paper is concerned with the memory usage of sparse direct solvers, which depends on the ordering of the unknowns and the scheduling of the computational tasks. We study the influence of state-of-the-art sparse matrix reordering techniques on the memory usage of a multifrontal solver. Concerning
