Reliable multicast protocols can strongly simplify the design of distributed applications. However, it is hard to sustain a high multicast throughput when groups are large and het...
Locales (as first embodied in the SPLINE system) are a very good approach to constructing and organising large virtual environments, especially for distributed and multiuser syste...
We present a new method for the combined visualization of software architecture diagrams, such as UML class diagrams or component diagrams, and software metrics defined on groups ...
As computing breaches petascale limits both in processor performance and storage capacity, the only way that current and future gains in performance can be achieved is by increasi...
The underlying model of distributed systems is that of loosely coupled components r running in parallel and communicating by message passing. Description, construction and evoluti...
