The Virtual Interface Architecture (VIA) is an industry standard user-level communication architecture for system area networks. The VIA provides a protected, directlyaccessible i...
Distributed Computing Systems are a viable and less expensive alternative to parallel computers. However, a serious difficulty in concurrent programming of a distributed system is...

This paper describes GulfStream, a scalable distributed software system designed to address the problem of managing the network topology in a multi-domain server farm. In particul...
In this paper we report experiences on a parallel implementation of a standard cell placement algorithm on a cluster of myrinet connected PCs. The proposed algorithm is based on a...

Given the increasing traffic on the World Wide Web (Web), it is difficult for a single popular Web server to handle the demand from its many clients. By clustering a group of Web ...
This paper presents Clusterfile, a parallel file system that provides parallel file access on a cluster of computers. Existing parallel file systems offer little control over matc...
With advances in storage technology, the ability to provide client end storage for continuous media applications has become a possibility. Transmission of data in cluster based mu...
In this paper, we revisit the master-slave tasking paradigm in the context of heterogeneous processors. We assume that communications take place in exclusive mode. We present a po...
At UCLA's Plasma Physics Group, we have been successful in building and using a numerically-intensive parallel computing cluster using Power Macintosh hardware and the Macint...
