Interprocess communication (IPC) is an important phenomenon in distributed computing and operating systems. Microkernels of modern operating systems use synchronous IPC semantics f...
Over the past several years, with the advent of the Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) [10] and the Web Services Resource Framework (WSRF) [14], Service-Oriented Architectures...
The shared-memory programming model is a very effective way to achieve parallelism on shared memory parallel computers. As great progress was made in hardware and software technolo...
An increased need for collaborative research, together with continuing advances in communication technology and computer hardware, has facilitated the development of distributed s...
