We are interested in running in parallel cellular automata. We present an algorithm which explores the dynamic remapping of cells in order to balance the load between processing nodes. The parallel application runs on a cluster of PCs connected by Fast-Eth ...
Dynamic parallel schedules (DPS) is a flow graph based framework for developing parallel applications on clusters of workstations. The DPS flow graph execution model enables automatic pipelined parallel execution of applications. DPS supports graceful degr ...
In this paper, methods and algorithms are presented for an efficient slicing process specifically designed for microstereolithography, a high-resolution rapid prototyping technology. Modifications are given for different implementation environments (FPU, P ...
Since June 1998, EPFL's Visible Human Slice Server (http://visiblehuman.epfl.ch) allows to extract arbitrarily oriented and positioned slices. More than 300,000 slices are extracted each year. In order to give a 3D view of anatomic structures, a new servic ...

With the deeply-ingrained notion that disks can efficiently access only one dimensional data, current approaches for mapping multidimensional data to disk blocks either allow efficient accesses in only one dimension, trading off the efficiency of accesses ...
This paper presents the design and evaluation of a Striped File I/O (SFIO) library for parallel I/O within an MPI environment. We present techniques for optimizing communications and disk accesses for small striping factors. Using MPI derived datatype capa ...
SFIO, Parallel File Striping for MPI-I/O Emin Gabrielyan EPFL, Computer Science Dept. Peripheral Systems Lab. Emin.Gabrielyan@epfl.ch Abstract This paper presents the design and evaluation of a Striped File I/O (SFIO) library for parallel I/O in an MPI env ...
To analyze new, parallel computers, developers must rapidly simulate designs running realistic workloads. Historically, direct execution and a parallel host have accelerated simulations, although these techniques have typically lacked portability. Through ...
Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore drive the MTBF of such clusters to unacceptable levels. The software framewo ...
