—In an attempt to increase the performance/cost ratio, large compute clusters are becoming heterogeneous at multiple levels: from asymmetric processors, to different system archi...
We define a new model called O-PRS that extends the Process Rewrite Systems formalism with a new associative operator, “ ”, that allows to model parallel composition while ke...
Experience has shown that development using shared-memory concurrency, the prevalent parallel programming paradigm today, is hard and synchronization primitives nonintuitive becaus...
Global Computing achieves high throughput computing by harvesting a very large number of unused computing resources connected to the Internet. This parallel computing model target...
Even though grid research is prosperous in an extensive context, few grid platforms for high performance computing are practical and in operation so far. Since most applications a...
