Data futures in a metacomputing system refer to data products that have not yet been created but which can be uniquely named and manipulated. We employ data flow mechanisms expres...
Region-based memory management offers several important potential advantages over garbage collection, including real-time performance, better data locality, and more efficient us...
—In the grid context, there is little support for programming paradigms such as shared data or associative programming. We have previously proposed an original idea to attack sha...

Awareness is an essential requirement in collaborative activities. This paper presents Ariane, a generic and reusable awareness infrastructure, independent of a specific applicatio...
As improvements in processor speed continue to outpace improvements in cache and memory speed, poor locality increasingly degrades performance. Because copying garbage collectors ...
