Generating Parallel Programs from the Wavefront Design Pattern
Object-oriented programming, design patterns, and frameworks are common techniques that have been used to reduce the complexity of sequential programming. We have applied these te...

A Malleable-Job System for Timeshared Parallel Machines
Malleable jobs are parallel programs that can change the number of processors on which they are executing at run time in response to an external command. One of the advantages of ...

Evaluating the Performance of Skeleton-Based High Level Parallel Programs
We show in this paper how to evaluate the performance of skeleton-based high level parallel programs. Since many applications follow some commonly used algorithmic skeletons, we id...

A Generic Parallel Pattern-Based System for Bioinformatics
Abstract. Parallel program design patterns provide users a new way to get parallel programs without much effort. However, it is always a serious limitation for most existing parall...

A Semantics for Concurrent Separation Logic
We present a trace semantics for a language of parallel programs which share access to mutable data. We introduce a resource-sensitive logic for partial correctness, based on a re...

Concurrency Analysis for Parallel Programs with Textually Aligned Barriers
Abstract. A fundamental problem in the analysis of parallel programs is to determine when two statements in a program may run concurrently. This analysis is the parallel analog to ...
