The development of efficient parallel out-of-core applications is often tedious, because of the need to explicitly manage the movement of data between files and data structures ...
This paper presents a new asynchronous programming library (libasync-smp) that allows event-driven applications to take advantage of multiprocessors by running code for event hand...

Behavioural models offer the ability to simulate autonomous agents like organisms and living beings. Psychological studies have showed that the human behaviour can be described by...
Shared Memory is an interesting communication paradigm for SMP machines and clusters. Weak consistency models have been proposed to improve efficiency of shared memory applications...
Dataflow synchronous languages have attracted considerable interest in domains such as real-time control and hardware design. The potential benefits are promising: Discrete-time...
