As we move to large manycores, the hardware-based global checkpointing schemes that have been proposed for small shared-memory machines do not scale. Scalability barriers include ...
Abstract. Using mobile agent systems, cooperative distributed applications that run over the Internet can be constructed flexibly. However, there are some problems: it is difficul...
Stampede is a parallel programming system to facilitate the programming of interactive multimedia applications on clusters of SMPs. In a Stampede application, a variable number of...
Technology scaling in integrated circuits has consistently provided dramatic performance improvements in modern microprocessors. However, increasing device counts and decreasing o...
