— The Parallel Resource-Optimal (PRO) computation model was introduced by Gebremedhin et al. [2002] as a framework for the design and analysis of efficient parallel algorithms. ...
Production grids have a potential for parallel execution of a very large number of tasks but also introduce a high overhead that significantly impacts the execution of short task...
Abstract. Grid architectures are execution environments that are known to be at the same time distributed, parallel, heterogeneous and dynamic. While current tools focus solutions ...
Agents are systems capable of perceiving their environment through sensors, reasoning about their sensory input using some characteristic reasoning process and acting in their env...
This paper introduces Pact, a new model for parallel heuristic programming on MIMD machines. Designed and implemented as an integrated tool environment, Pact allows the user to dev...
