A lot of recent research on content-based P2P searching for file-sharing applications has focused on exploiting semantic relations between peers to facilitate searching. To the be...
Efficiency of synchronization mechanisms can limit the parallel performance of many shared-memory applications. In addition, the ever increasing performance gap between processor...
Scalable parallel computers with TFLOPS (Trillion FLoating Point Operations Per Second) performance levels are now under construction. While we believe TFLOPS processor technology...
One of the advantages of logic programming is the fact that it offers many sources of implicit parallelism, such as and-parallelism and or-parallelism. Arguably, or-parallel system...
This paper describes issues encountered in the design and implementation of a parallel object-oriented database system. In particular, we find that the design of a client/server ...
