With this contribution we present a design and development method for distributed applications, which are running on top of advanced object middleware platforms. We introduce the ...
All but the most briefly used systems must evolve as their mission and roles change over time. Evolution in the context of large distributed systems is extraordinarily complex bec...
We have implemented a set of computational physics codes on a network of IBM RS/6000 workstations used as a distributed parallel computer. We compare the performance of the codes ...
In many of today's applications, access to storage constitutes the major cost of processing a user request. Data prefetching has been used to alleviate the storage access lat...
Simulation modeling can be highly effective for solving problems found in the food, beverage, consumer products, and pharmaceutical industries. The flow of material or fluid in th...
