Abstract. We give randomized agreement algorithms with constant expected running time in asynchronous systems subject to process failures, where up to a minority of processes may f...
Star Superscalar is a task-based programming model. The programmer starts with an ordinary C program, and adds pragmas to mark functions as tasks, identifying their inputs and outp...
Learning path construction is a complex task. It involves formulating and organizing learning activities, defining ways to evaluate student learning progress and to match such prog...
As multi-cores arrive for mainstream desktop systems, developers must invest the effort to parallelize their applications. We present Parallel Task (short ParaTask), a solution to ...
While modern CPUs offer an increasing number of cores with shared caches, prevailing execution engines for business processes, workflows, or Web service compositions have not been ...
