We consider the implication of deep sub-micron VLSI technology on the design of communication frameworks for parallel DSP systems-on-chip. We assert that distributed data transfer...
Message passing is a very popular style of parallel programming, used in a wide variety of applications and supported by many APIs, such as BSD sockets, MPI and PVM. Its importance...
The Linux cluster considered in this paper, formed from shuttle box XPC nodes with 2 GHz Athlon processors connected by dual Gb Ethernet switches, is relatively easily constructed...
