As the performance gap between the CPU and main memory continues to grow, techniques to hide memory latency are essential to deliver a high performance computer system. Prefetchin...
One of the factors holding back the application of multiagent, distributed approaches to large-scale sensor interpretation and diagnosis problems is the lack of good techniques fo...
Improvements in microprocessor and networking performance have made networks of workstations a very attractive platform for high-end parallel and distributed computing. However, t...
The Virtual Interface (VI) architecture has become the industry standard for user-level network interfaces. This paper presents the implementation and evaluation of Javia, a Java ...
Abstract Competition and cooperation can boost the performance of a combinatorial search process. Both can be implemented with a portfolio of algorithms which run in parallel, give...
