Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
Parallel programming is elusive. The relative performance of di erent parallel implementations varies with machine architecture, system and problem size. How to compare di erent i...
Abstract. Algorithmic skeletons are a well-known approach for implementing parallel and distributed applications. Declarative versions typically use higher-order functions in funct...
This paper presents e cient and portable implementations of a useful image enhancement process, the Symmetric Neighborhood Filter SNF, and an image segmentation technique which ma...
We have implemented a set of computational physics codes on a network of IBM RS/6000 workstations used as a distributed parallel computer. We compare the performance of the codes ...
