The CCS (Calculus of Communicating Systems) process algebra is a well-known formal model of synchronization and communication. It is used for the analysis of safety and liveness i...
A case study of performance and dependability evaluation of fault-tolerant multiprocessors is presented. Two specific architectures are analyzed taking into account system functio...
HPL is a parallel Linpack benchmark package widely adopted in massive cluster system performance test. On HPL data layout among processors, a law to determine block size NB theoret...
The growing trend towards adoption of flexible and heterogeneous, parallel computing architectures has increased the challenges faced by the programming community. We propose a me...
In cache based multiprocessors a protocol must maintain coherence among replicated copies of shared writable data. In delayed consistency protocols the effect of out-going and in-...
