Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
The locality of the data in parallel programs is known to have a strong impact on the performance of distributed-memory multiprocessor systems. The worse the locality in access pa...

Idle desktops have been successfully used to run sequential and master-slave task parallel codes on a large scale in the context of volunteer computing. However, execution of messa...
stract level, remote procedure calls enable programmers to invoke (possibly remote) services as if they were intra-application procedure calls. Much like function or procedure call...
Design patterns have proven to be very useful for the design of object-oriented systems. The power of design patterns stems from their ability to provide generic solutions to reap...
