The NetSolve project, underway at the University of Tennessee and at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, allows users to access computational resources distributed across the netwo...
We consider networks of workstations which are not only timesharing, but also heterogeneous with a large variation in the computing power and memory capacities of different workst...
We present a flexible skeleton for implementing distributed work pools in our parallel functional language Eden. The skeleton manages a pool of tasks (work pool) in a distributed ...
Rendering high-quality computer animations requires intensive computation, and therefore a large amount of time. One way to speed up this process is to devise rendering algorithms...
Parallel Packet Switches (PPS) use internal, parallel switch planes that operate at less than line speed. A PPS can scale-up to faster line speeds than a single-plane switch can. ...
