Time and Information in Sequential and Concurrent Computation
Time can be understood as dual to information in extant models of both sequential and concurrent computation. The basis for this duality is phase space, coordinatized by time and ...

Parallel Reducibility for Information-Theoretically Secure Computation
Secure Function Evaluation (SFE) protocols are very hard to design, and reducibility has been recognized as a highly desirable property of SFE protocols. Informally speaking, reduc...

From Sequential Processes to Grid Computation
: We introduce an extended model for view-centric reasoning, EVCR, that provides more nsive and flexible abstractions for representing actual concurrency. The theory of Communicati...

Exposing I/O Concurrency with Informed Prefetching
Informed prefetching provides a simple mechanism for I/O-intensive, cache-ineffective applications to efficiently exploit highly-parallel I/O subsystems such as disk arrays. This ...

Toward a unified theory of the multitasking continuum: from concurrent performance to task switching, interruption, and resumpti
Multitasking in user behavior can be represented along a continuum in terms of the time spent on one task before switching to another. In this paper, we present a theory of behavi...
