Seminar: Scheduling and Memory Management for Large-Scale Applications: From Caches to Burst Buffers
This talk explores scheduling problems in the context of large-scale applications from a memory perspective. We focus here on two very different levels of memory in the hierarchy: caches and burst buffers.With the recent advent of many-core arc...

Seminar: The Cyberinfrastructure of Gravitational-wave Astronomy and March towards LIGO Open Data
Artist’s illustration of two merging neutron stars. The rippling space-time grid represents gravitational waves that travel out from the collision, while the narrow beams show the bursts of gamma rays that are shot out just seconds after the gra...

Seminar: Co-scheduling for large-scale applications: memory and resilience
This talk explores co-scheduling problems in the context of large-scale applications with two main focus: the memory side, in particular the cache memory and the resilience side. With the recent advent of many-core architectures such as chip multi...

Contributions of two SciTech's DARPA-funded projects featured in the DARPA 60th Anniversary Digital Magazine
For the past 3 years the SciTech research group (led by Dr. Ewa Deelman) has enabled research endeavors via two DARPA-funded projects: RACE and MINT. The RACE (Repository and Workflows for Accelerating Circuit Realization) project is part of th...

Seminar: Checkpointing Workflows for Fail-Stop Error
We consider the problem of orchestrating the execution of workflow applications structured as Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) on parallel computing platforms that are subject to fail-stop failures. The objective is to minimize expected overall exec...
