evel of abstraction, we can represent a workflow as a directed graph with operators (or tasks) at the vertices (see Figure 1). Each operator takes inputs from data sources or from ...
Multiple threads running in a single, shared address space is a simple model for writing parallel programs for symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) machines and for overlapping I/O and ...
This paper is on the construction of a fault-tolerant and responsive server subsystem in an application context where the subsystem is accessed through an asynchronous network by ...
This paper introduces the notion of a Flexible Instruction Processor (FIP) for systematic customisation of instruction processor design and implementation. The features of our app...
Cloud computing systems fundamentally provide access to large pools of data and computational resources through a variety of interfaces similar in spirit to existing grid and HPC ...
