The Weak Mutual Exclusion problem
In this paper we define the Weak Mutual Exclusion (WME) problem. Analogously to classical Distributed Mutual Exclusion (DME), WME serializes the accesses to a shared resource. Di...

Processor Lower Bound Formulas for Array Computations and Parametric Diophantine Systems
Using a directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms, we solve a problem related to precedenceconstrained multiprocessor schedules for array computations: Given a sequence of ...
