Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing. When all computers are up and running, we would like the load to be evenly distri...
Interconnect speeds currently surpass the abilities of today’s processors to satisfy their demands. The throughput rate provided by the network simply generates too much protoco...
The advantages of pattern-based programming have been well-documented in the sequential literature. However patterns have yet to make their way into mainstream parallel computing,...
