BIP: a new protocol designed for high performance networking on Myrinet
- In Workshop PC-NOW, IPPS/SPDP98
, 1998
"... Abstract. High speed networks are now providing incredible performances. Software evolution is slow and the old protocol stacks are no longer adequate for these kind of communication speed. When bandwidth increases, the latency should decrease as much in order to keep the system balance. With the cu ..."

This design is presented here as well as experimental results that lead to achieve real Gigabit/s throughput and less than 5 s latency on a cluster of PC workstations, with this a ordable network hardware. Moreover, our
An Experimental Comparison of the Effectiveness of Branch Testing and Data Flow Testing
- IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering
, 1993
"... An experiment comparing the effectiveness of the all-uses and all-edges test data adequacy criteria was performed. The experiment was designed so as to overcome some of the deficiencies of previous software testing experiments. A large number of test sets was randomly generated for each of nine subj ..."

GRENCHMARK: A Framework for Analyzing, Testing, and Comparing Grids
- In Proc. of the sixth IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the GRID (CCGrid’06
, 2006
"... Grid computing is becoming the natural way to aggregate and share large sets of heterogeneous resources. With the infrastructure becoming ready for the challenge, current grid development and acceptance hinge on proving that grids reliably support real applications, and on creating adequate benchmar ..."

and flexible. We show how the framework can be used for grid system analysis, functionality testing in grid environments, and for comparing different grid settings, and present the results obtained with GRENCHMARK in our multi-cluster grid, the DAS. 1
Donations to Charity as Purchase Incentives: How Well They Work May Depend on What You Are Trying to Sell,”
- Journal of Consumer Research,

Experimental Investigation of Heuristics for Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling: An Update
, 2004
"... This paper considers heuristics for the well–known resource–constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP). It provides an update of our survey which was published in 2000. We summarize and categorize a large number of heuristics that have recently been proposed in the literature. Most of these heur ..."

of these heuristics are then evaluated in a computational study and compared on the basis of our standardized experimental design. Subsequently, we discuss our test design in more detail and give some remarks on its usage by other researchers in future studies. The paper closes with a summary of the recent
Designing Parallel Algorithms for Clusters
- ANAIS DO XXVI CONGRESSO DA SBC WBC L WORKSHOP DE BIOLOGIA COMPUTACIONAL
, 2006
"... The use of the dependence transformation method has been proposed to generate parallel algorithms suitable for cluster and grid computing. In particular this method has been used to produce an efficient parallel algorithm for the problem of string alignment, an important problem in Bioinformatics. ..."

The experimental results show that the overhead of the redundant approach is small compared to the overall
C-Meter:A Framework for Performance Analysis of Computing Clouds”, IEEE/ACM symposium on cluster computing and cloud,
, 2009

To address these issues, we have designed and implemented C-Meter, which is a portable, extensible, and easy-to-use framework for generating and submitting test workloads to computing clouds. In this paper, first we state the requirements for frameworks to assess the performance
R.: Experiment design and administration for computer clusters for SAT-solvers (EDACC

, 2010
"... The design of a SAT-solver or the modification of an existing one is always followed by a phase of intensive testing of the solver on a benchmark of instances. This task can be very time consuming even when using multi-core computers or computer clusters. To speed up this process we designed EDACC. ..."

Experimental evaluation of heuristic optimization algorithms: A tutorial
- Journal of Heuristics

Heuristic optimization algorithms seek good feasible solutions to optimization problems in circumstances where the complexities of the problem or the limited time available for solution do not allow exact solution. Although worst case and probabilistic analysis of algorithms have produced insight on ..."

on some classic models, most of the heuristics developed for large optimization problem must be evaluated empirically—by applying procedures to a collection of specific instances and comparing the observed solution quality and computational burden. This paper focuses on the methodological issues that must
