In this paper we present a general domain for the analysis of workflows and workflow components based on the notion of a collection of Turing machines sharing a set of tapes. We s...
Grid computing involves the transparent sharing of computational resources of many types by users across large geographic distances. The altruistic nature of many current grid reso...

Efficiency of synchronization mechanisms can limit the parallel performance of many shared-memory applications. In addition, the ever increasing performance gap between processor...
Probabilistic grammars offer great flexibility in modeling discrete sequential data like natural language text. Their symbolic component is amenable to inspection by humans, while...
—With virtual machine technology, distributed services deployed in multiple cooperative virtual machines, such as multi-tier web services, may reside on one physical machine. Thi...
