On the performance of MapReduce: A stochastic approach [PDF]
MapReduce is a highly acclaimed programming paradigm for large-scale information processing. However, there is no accurate model in the literature that can precisely forecast its run-time and resource usage for a given workload. In this paper, we derive analytic models for shared-memory MapReduce computations, in which the run-time and disk I/O are ...

A lightweight approach to performance portability with targetDP [PDF]
Leading high performance computing systems achieve their status through use of highly parallel devices such as NVIDIA graphics processing units or Intel Xeon Phi many-core CPUs. The concept of performance portability across such architectures, as well as traditional CPUs, is vital for the application programmer.
