The enhanced pay-per-view (EPPV) model for providing continuous-media-on-demand(CMOD) services associates with each continuous media clip a display frequency that dependson the cl...
Emulators that translate algorithms from the shared-memory model to two different message-passing models are presented. Both are achieved by implementing a wait-free, atomic, singl...
Effectively migrating sequential applications to take advantage of parallelism available on multicore platforms is a well-recognized challenge. This paper addresses important aspec...
