Abstract Barrier synchronizations can be very expensive on multiprogramming environment because no process can go past a barrier until all the processes have arrived. If a process ...
Clusters of networked, off-the-shelf workstations are currently used for computationintensive, parallel applications. However, it is hardly possible to predict the timing behaviou...
Grid is a computational environment in which applications can use multiple distributed computational resources in a safe, coordinated, efficient and transparent way. Data Integra...
Branch-and-bound algorithms are general methods applicable to various combinatorial optimization problems and parallelization is one of the most hopeful methods to improve these a...
Many large-scale distributed computing applications demand real-time responses by soft deadlines. To enable such real-time task distribution and execution on the volunteer resourc...
