Both inherently sequential code and limitations of analysis techniques prevent full parallelization of many applications by parallelizing compilers. Amdahl's Law tells us tha...
A key challenge in achieving high performance on software DSM systems is overcoming their relatively large communication latencies. In this paper, we consider two techniques which...
Database applications such as online transaction processing (OLTP) and decision support systems (DSS) constitute the largest and fastest-growing segment of the market for multipro...
Future parallel computers must efficiently execute not only hand-coded applications but also programs written in high-level, parallel programming languages. Today's machines ...
