Stochastic modeling forms the basis for analysis in many areas, including biological and economic systems, as well as the performance and reliability modeling of computers and comm...
Although multicomputers are becoming feasible for solving large problems, they are difficult to program: Extraction of parallelism from scalar languages is possible, but limited....
In this paper, we investigate the practical performance of lock-free techniques that provide synchronization on shared-memory multiprocessors. Our goal is to provide a technique t...
The performance of data-parallel algorithms for spatial operations using data-parallel variants of the bucket PMR quadtree, R-tree, and R+-tree spatial data structures is compared...
‘‘Industrial strength’’ software development environments (SDEs) must provide facilities to address three essential properties of multi-developer software systems: evoluti...
