A Dynamic Energy-Aware Model For Scheduling Computationally Intensive Bioinformatics Applications, Sachin Pawaskar, Hesham Ali Jul 2010

A Dynamic Energy-Aware Model For Scheduling Computationally Intensive Bioinformatics Applications, Sachin Pawaskar, Hesham Ali

Computer Science Faculty Proceedings & Presentations

High Performance Computing (HPC) resources are housed in large datacenters, which consume huge amounts of energy and are quickly demanding attention from businesses as they result in high operating costs. On the other hand HPC environments have been very useful to researchers in many emerging areas in life sciences such as Bioinformatics and Medical Informatics. In this paper, we provide a dynamic model for energy aware scheduling (EAS) in a HPC environment; we use a widely used bioinformatics tool named BLAT (BLAST-like alignment tool) running in a HPC environment as our case study. Our proposed EAS model incorporates 2-Phases: an …


Representing Synonymity In Causal Logic And In Logic Programming, Joohyung Lee, Yuliya Lierler, Vladimir Lifschitz, Fangkai Yang Jan 2010

Representing Synonymity In Causal Logic And In Logic Programming, Joohyung Lee, Yuliya Lierler, Vladimir Lifschitz, Fangkai Yang

Computer Science Faculty Proceedings & Presentations

We investigate the relationship between rules representing synonymity in nonmonotonic causal logic and in answer set programming. This question is of interest in connection with current work on modular languages for describing actions.
