Implementing efficient communication and I/O mechanisms in Java requires both fast access to lowlevel system resources (such as network and raw disk interfaces) and direct manipul...
Today's complex applications must face the distribution of data and code among different network nodes. Computation in distributed contexts is demanding increasingly powerful...
Kahn defined a formal model for networks of processes that communicate through channels carrying streams of data tokens. His mathematical results show the necessary conditions fo...
Networked UNIX workstations as well as workstations running Windows 98 and Windows NT are fast becoming the standard computing environments at many universities and research sites....
In this paper we work on the parallelization of the inherently serial Dijkstra's algorithm on modern multicore platforms. Dijkstra's algorithm is a greedy algorithm that ...
