SAGA is a high-level programming interface which provides the ability to develop distributed applications in an infrastructure independent way. In an earlier paper, we discussed ho...
We describe two novel constructs for programming parallel machines with multi-level memory hierarchies: call-up, which allows a child task to invoke computation on its parent, and...

This paper presents a technique to visualize the communication pattern of a parallel application at different points during its execution. Unlike many existing tools that show the...

Evaluating the design of a distributed application is di cult but provides useful information for program development and maintenance. In distributed debugging, for example, proce...
