Cost-effective clustering [PDF]
Computer Physics Communications, 2001 Small Beowulf clusters can effectively serve as personal or group supercomputers. In such an environment, a cluster can be optimally designed for a specific problem (or a small set of codes). We discuss how theoretical analysis of the code and benchmarking on similar hardware lead to optimal systems.

Cost-effectiveness of algorithms [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2015 Discrete Algorithms In this paper we discuss how to assess the performance of algorithms for optimisation problems in a way that balances solution quality and time. We propose measures of cost-effectiveness for such algorithms. These measures give the gain in solution quality per time unit over a sequence of inputs, and give a basis for ...
