- A Reconfigurable Architecture for Load-Balanced Rendering
- Commodity graphics hardware has become increasingly programmable over the last few years but has been limited to fixed resource allocation. These architectures handle some workloads well, others poorly; load-balancing to maximize graphics hardware performance has become a critical issue. This paper explores one solution to this problem using compile-time resource...

- Maestro-VC: On-Demand Secure Cluster Computing Using Virtualization
- On-demand computing is the name given to technology which enables an infrastructure where computing cycles are treated as a commodity, and where such a commodity can be accessed upon request. In this way the goals of on-demand computing overlap with and are similar to those of Grid computing: both enable...

- Integrated Graphics Solutions for Graphics-Intensive Applications
- This white paper talks about Transform and Lighting (T&L) in graphics hardware and then describes integrated graphics with Hardware-Based T&L. Hardware-based T&L has become an industry-standard feature in the modern 3D computer graphics world. Since its introduction to the consumer market in 1999, wide acceptance of this standard has followed...

- Desktop Batch Processing
- Today, online transaction processing applications can downsize from mainframes to microprocessors. Commodity database systems, operating systems, and hardware came of age in 1993 - they surpassed the online transaction processing performance of proprietary solutions. There are lingering doubts about downsizing batch transaction processing applications. The doubts center on the ability...

- A Low-Cost Linux Based Graphics Cluster for Cultural Visualisation in Virtual Environments
- The authors use visualisation technology to engage people with cultural heritage in much the same way that story and song have for millenia. The Internet has not yet lived up to its potential to distribute these high-fidelity, visually stimulating virtual environments. This paper describes the approach of using the traditional...

- A Performance-Oriented Data Parallel Virtual Machine for GPUs
- Existing GPU programming interfaces require that applications employ a graphics-centric programming model exported by a device driver tuned for real-time graphics and games. This programming model impedes development of non-graphics applications by hiding hardware resources behind its graphics-oriented interface. This paper presents a virtual machine abstraction for GPUs that provides...

- Large Scale Data Warehouses on Grid: Oracle Database 10g and HP ProLiant Servers
- Grid computing has the potential of drastically changing enterprise computing as one knows it today. The main concept of Grid computing is to see computing as a utility. It should not matter where data resides, or what computer processes a task. This concept has been applied successfully to academic research....

- Motivating Commodity Multi-Core Processor Design for System-Level Error Protection
- This paper analyzes the reliability and availability features in several commodity Chip MultiProcessors CMPs and finds that they have numerous single points of failure. Failures in some system components, e.g., interconnect cache controller and memory controller logic, leave CMPs susceptible to error even if the computation is Dual Modular Redundant...
