A memory model for a shared memory, multiprocessor commonly and often implicitly assumed by programmers is that of sequential consistency. This model guarantees that all memory ac...
One of the mostsoughtaftersoftware innovation of thisdecade is the construction of systems using off-the-shelf workstations that actually deliver, and even surpass, the power and ...
Idle workstations in a network represent a significant computing potential. In particular, their processing power can be used by parallel-distributed programs that treat the netwo...

Stream languages explicitly describe fork-join parallelism and pipelines, offering a powerful programming model for many-core Multi-Processor Systems on Chip (MPSoC). In an embedd...
Exploiting the full computational power of current hierarchical multiprocessor machines requires a very careful distribution of threads and data among the underlying non-uniform ar...
