1 Establishing suitable programming models for pervasive spaces is essential in improving the productivity, enhancing the quality of pervasive systems, and creating an open platfor...
The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a popular communication library that supports the SIMD model of parallel computing. Process networks (PN), where processes communicate throu...
Abstract. In this paper we present a study of several Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms for the Set Covering Problem. In our computational study we emphasize the influence ...
Three modular reduction algorithms for large integers are compared with respect to their performance in portable software: the classical algorithm, Barrett’s algorithm and Montgo...
This paper suggests that a distributed system should support two communication paradigms: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) and group commumcation. The former is used for point-to-point...
