Engineering Scalable Algorithms for the Basic Toolbox ScAlBox
ScAlBox aims at basic algorithmic tools that can be used in a wide spectrum of applications and that scale orders of magnitude better than the state of the art with respect to input size or number of processors. In the last decades, we witness the transition into the information age with profound effects on science, technology, and our daily life. This transition is driven by a growing spectrum of computer applications that process larger and larger data sets using increasingly complex algorithms. However, the scalability challenge has emerged as a major road block to this progress: An explosion of the amount of data to be processed (big data) coincides with stagnating performance of a…
