Implementing a data sharing culture

Implementing a data sharing culture.

Data sharing is the process of sharing with other researchers the deidentified individual patient data underlying the results presented in scientific articles. Recently, the US Institute of Medicine urged biomedical journals, as evaluators and publishers of research results, and implementers of academic standards, to enforce policies that require sharing of clinical trial data (Institute of Med...

Implementing Scoped Behaviour for Flexible Distributed Data Sharing

Distributed-memory hardware platforms, such as a network of workstations, are attractive because of their ubiquitousness and good price-performance. However, there are high communications overheads associated with sharing data between distributed memories. While message-passing programming systems provide the greatest low-level flexibility to optimize the overheads, shared-data systems provide ...

Implementing Optimized Distributed Data Sharing Using Scoped Behaviour and a Class Library

Sometimes, it is desirable to alter or optimize the behaviour of an object according to the needs of a specific portion of the source code (i.e., context), such as a particular loop or phase. One technique to support this form of optimization flexibility is a novel approach called scoped behaviour. Scoped behaviour allows the programmer to incrementally tune applications on a per-object and per...
