Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
This paper describes the parallelization of a commercial molecular dynamics simulation code, GROMOS96, on a SCI (Scalable Coherent Interface) interconnected PC cluster. The underly...
OpenMP is an architecture-independent language for programming in the shared memory model. OpenMP is designed to be simple and in terms of programming abstractions. Unfortunately,...
It is possible to implement the parallel random access machine (PRAM) on a chip multiprocessor (CMP) efficiently with an emulated shared memory (ESM) architecture to gain easy par...
Parallel programs that modify shared data in a cachecoherent multiprocessor with a write-invalidate coherence protocol create ownership overhead in the form of ownership acquisiti...
