Parallel algorithms for MPEG video compression with PVM
This paper presents parallel algorithms for MPEG video compression by using the PVM library. Because of the huge amount of computation, a sequential software encoder is slow at th...

Scalable Distributed Data Structures for High-Performance Databases
Present databases, whether on centralized or parallel DBMSs, do not deal well with scalability. We present an architecture for Wintel multicomputers termed AMOS-SDDS, coupling a h...

A Combined Virtual Shared Memory and Network which Schedules
In this paper, we follow a new path to arrive at the idea of a COMA — a Cache Only Memory Architecture. We show how the evolution of another architecture (ADARC) leads quite nat...

A Highly Fault-Tolerant Circuit-Switched Hypercube
In this paper, we present a strongly fault-tolerant design for a d-dimensional hypercube multiprocessor and examine its reconfigurability. The augmented hypercube has a spare nod...
