Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
Multi Agent Based Simulation (MABS) has been used mostly in purely social contexts. However, compared to other approaches, e.g., traditional discrete event simulation, object-orien...
The objective of query optimizers is to select a good execution plan for a given query. In a distributed system, it is crucial for a query optimizer to have effective remote cost e...
Load balancing involves assigning to each processor, work proportional to its performance, minimizing the execution time of the program. Althoughstatic load balancing can solve ma...
