In this paper, we describe recent work in developing a peer-topeer collaborative environment. The study examines various locking mechanisms/policies by adjusting the granularity o...
Multicore architectures, which have multiple processing units on a single chip, have been adopted by most chip manufacturers. Most such chips contain on-chip caches that are share...
Initial versions of MPI were designed to work efficiently on multi-processors which had very little job control and thus static process models. Subsequently forcing them to suppor...
