Concurrency control in Smalltalk is based on locks and is therefore notoriously difficult to use. Even though some implementations provide high-level constructs, these add complexi...
— Large Clusters, high availability clusters and Grid deployments often suffer from network, node or operating system faults and thus require the use of fault tolerant programmin...
The current trend in HPC hardware is towards clusters of shared-memory (SMP) compute nodes. For applications developers the major question is how best to program these SMP cluster...
Previously, we developed a type system to ensure secure information flow in a sequential, imperative programming language [VSI96]. Program variables are classified as either hig...
