Minimizing communications when mapping affine loop nests onto distributed memory parallel computers has already drawn a lot of attention. This paper focuses on the next step: as i...
The use of multiprocessor tasks (M-tasks) has been shown to be successful for mixed task and data parallel implementations of algorithms from scientific computing. The approach o...
Executing long-running parallel applications in Opportunistic Grid environments composed of heterogeneous, shared user workstations, is a daunting task. Machines may fail, become ...
A communication protocol is a fundamental component of a multi-agent system. The security requirements for a communication protocol should be articulated during the early stages o...
The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a popular communication library that supports the SIMD model of parallel computing. Process networks (PN), where processes communicate throu...
