Recent development in computer hardware has brought more wide-spread emergence of shared memory, multi-core systems. These architectures offer opportunities to speed up various ta...
This paper presents a parallel version of CLUSTAL W, called pCLUSTAL. In contrast to the commercial SGI parallel Clustal, which requires an expensive shared memory SGI multiprocess...

ParaDisEO is a framework dedicated to the design of parallel and distributed metaheuristics including local search methods and evolutionary algorithms. This paper focuses on the la...
Software distributed shared memory (DSM) techniques, while effective on applications with coarse-grained sharing, yield poor performance for the fine-grained sharing encountered i...
A key challenge in achieving high performance on software DSM systems is overcoming their relatively large communication latencies. In this paper, we consider two techniques which...
