We explore the creation of a metacomputer by the aggregation of independent sites. Joining a metacomputer is voluntary, and hence it has to be an endeavor that mutually benefits a...
Parallel and distributed systems are representative of large and complex systems that require the application of formal methods. These systems are often unreliable because implemen...

This paper presents a parallel phoneme recognition algorithm based on the continuous Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The parallel phoneme recognition algorithm distributes 3-state HMMs...
In this paper, we present ParaPART, a parallel version of a mesh partitioning tool, called PART, for distributed systems. PART takes into consideration the heterogeneities in proce...
We present our experience of building a prototype system based on the Utility Model for adaptive multimedia. The Utility Model is proposed to capture the issues and dynamics in mul...

We present a new arrangement of directory bits called the segment directory to improve directory storage efficiency: a segment directory can point to several sharing processors wi...
Clustering and scheduling of tasks for parallel implementation is a well researched problem. Several techniques have been presented in the literature to improve performance and re...
The diversity of computers and networks within a distributed system makes these systems highly heterogeneous. System heterogeneity complicates the design of static applications tha...
Abstract. This paper uses a theory of composition based on existential and universal properties. Universal properties are useful to describe components interactions through shared ...
