In this chapter, we discuss a widely used fault-tolerant data replication model called virtual synchrony. The model responds to two kinds of needs. First, there is the practical qu...
The last years have shown that there is no way to disregard the advantages provided by multiprocessor System-on-Chip (MPSoC) architectures in the embedded systems domain. Using mu...
Predicting how well applications may run on modern systems is becoming increasingly challenging. It is no longer sufficient to look at number of floating point operations and commu...
The advent of general purpose graphics processing units (GPGPU's) brings about a whole new platform for running numerically intensive applications at high speeds. Their multi-...
