The amount of data collected and stored in databases is growing considerably for almost all areas of human activity. Processing this amount of data is very expensive, both humanly...
This paper presents a solution to the (processor) group membership problem. The methodology followed in designing the algorithm is summarized by the option to optimize the perform...
This paper proposes efficient algorithms for implementing multicast in heterogeneous workstation/PC clusters. Multicast is an important operation in many scientific and industri...
