We advocate an approach towards the characterisation of components where their qualifications are deduced systematically from a small set of elementary assumptions. Using the chara...
In this paper we sketch out a proposed reference implementation for message passing in Java (MPJ), an MPI-like API from the Message-Passing Working Group of the Java Grande Forum ...
Tuning parallel applications requires the use of effective tools for detecting performance bottlenecks. Along a parallel program execution, many individual situations of performan...
Abstract. In this paper, we describe DyRecT (Dynamic Reconfiguration Toolkit) a software library that allows programmers to develop adaptively parallel message-passing MPI program...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider parallelizability of some Pcomplete problems. First we propose a parameter which indicates parallelizability for a convex layers problem. We pr...
The instruction sets of general-purpose microprocessors are designed to offer good performance across a wide range of programs. The size and complexity of the instruction sets, how...
This paper presents a novel broadband multimedia service called TV-Anytime. The basic idea of this service is to store broadcast media assets onto media server systems and allow c...
