Some IT companies, such as IBM, are pushing research and education in Service Science. This is due to the transition of their business models from producing hardware and software to providing services, as well as service-oriented vision changes the way people design software systems. People believe that service is the common language between business developers and IT engineers and service bridges the gap between business requirements and IT implementation. But people still do not know clearly how to use the service related theories in software system analysis and design. This paper attempts to explore this unknown topic. We want to reveal how software can become a service and suggest guidelines for analyzing and implementing service-oriented systems.
We present a practical comparison of suffix array construction algorithms on modern hardware. The benchmark is conducted using our new benchmark framework SACABench, which allows for an easy deployment of publicly available implementations, simple plotting of the results, and straight forward support to include new construction algorithms. We use the framework to develop a construction algorithm running on the GPU that is competitive with the fastest parallel algorithm in our test environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
