Consider a set of shared objects in a distributed network, where several copies of each object may exist at any given time. To ensure both fast access to the objects as well as e ...
Successful interaction between autonomous agents is contingent on those agents making decisions consistent with the expectations of their peers -- these expectations are based on ...
Clusters of SMPs are becoming increasingly common. However, the shared memory design of SMPs and the consequential contention between system processors for access to main memory c...
We present the design and evaluation of an on-thefly data-race-detection technique that handles applications written for the lazy release consistent (LRC) shared memory model. We ...
High-dimensional problems arising from robot motion planning, biology, data mining, and geographic information systems often require the computation of k nearest neighbor (knn) gr...
